Key logging

This advice will not work if the infection is just doing key logging. The key log will just show an incorrect password followed by the correct credentials.

Standard advice in these situations is to intentionally get your password WRONG if you have any concerns. Possibly even use an intentionally wrong FF number. Any website that will log you in with known wrong credentials has to be bogus, as only the real website actually knows what your credentials are to say they are wrong.
