Firefox does not recognize the "Ins" button on my keyboard
Tried to use the Ins button on my keyboard to type over a word and it just flat out doesn't work. Anyone else share this same problem?
If other experience similar problems, then it may be a bug in the early releases of the browser. I downloaded my brower about 2 months ago.

I never use the Ins key to overtype; I always either delete first and type, or mark/highlight and type.

Where exactly are you trying to use the [Ins] key?
Insert/Overwrite mode toggling that works in word processing applications (such as WinWord), does not apply to standard text input fields in Windows (e.g. it won't work in Notepad).
