From what I have read on other lists, reseting the PRAM in the any MacOS X version will not make much of a difference. This was a common debugging hint from OS7-9. I understand now the PRAM is mostly used for when the Kernal panics to save the register information to report back to Apple. For those that don't know a kernal panic is like the "blue screen of death" on a Windows box, but the only time I have seen one was when the hard disk was corrupt, or early on when there were some issues with restoring the Network after awaking from sleep mode in an entirely new network.
First is this for all password fields? If this is Leopard, do you have any input managers (text expansion software or One Password) enabled? I would attempt to disable these and see what happens. You could also try locking your keychain in system preferences to see if this is because the keychain is not interacting correctly with Safari. Another thing to try is create a new user on the system and see if it occurs there. That way you would know if it is system wide or not.
