BUG (possibly Firefox bug) Greek characters in Firefox web browser

This weekend I found that typing into any text box on my Firefox browser resulted in Greek characters. I had to copy and paste from Notepad in order to get anything done. Restarting Firefox did not do any good. The problem went away after I restarted Logos.

This is likely to be a Firefox problem, but I thought that since it seems to be coupled to Logos, I would mention it here.

Firefox: 38.0.5; Windows 7

Logos 6.3 SR-2

Do you have any Greek keyboards installed (e.g., https://www.logos.com/support/logos5/windows/keyboards)? If so, perhaps the Greek one has been activated for Firefox, and switching back to English should fix it. (I can't think of any way in which having Logos running would affect text entry in another application.)

Following the video on the url you have provided, I see that I have a Logos keyboard installed. Furthermore, the installation of the keyboard allows toggling between keyboards within applications by using <left ALT>-<Shift>. Thus, I think it is safe to conclude that I inadvertently typed the aforementioned key sequence and left myself in Greek!

Thanks for the pointer, Bradley.
