Randomly fails to correctly focus on a text input box, despite clicking on it, and interprets typing as keyboard commands.
If I'm trying to type a comment into Youtube (where the problem usually occurs) the browser will completely random not recognize that i'm trying to write text. The little flashing cursor thing appears as normal, but if I start typing it acts like im using keyboard shortcuts.
No matter how many times I click, it functions as described above. the only way to stop it is to switch to a different program, and then back to firefox.
While that's not especially hard to do, the main problem is that if im typing a comment and hit backspace, it can bring me back to my previous page and wipe out the comment I was writing.

It is possible that some of the status keys have the wrong state and Firefox sees them as still pressed.
Try to press all the status keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt) a few times to see if that helps to recover from this. If it doesn't help then close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer.
Do you have this problem anywhere else?
