Hi Monty, I had LOTS of problems with Firefox v3.6 (losing keystrokes) and these issues were confirmed by MANY others on the Firefox/Mozilla forum. Several updates to Firefox (and Flash plugin) later, things are a little better, but still not as good as it once was (Note: I have not tried Firefox v4 beta yet).
My solution was to stop using Firefox and use Google's Chrome browser instead. The only downside was that the Firebug debugger I use during website/webapp development is not as powerful (e.g. cannot set breakpoints).
