In the meantime, you could try setting your firewall to stop it communicating, or install keyscrambler to stop it from reading key entries?
i already have keyscrambler installed
the problem is that keyloggers also send the remembered passwords of firefox
Don’t store passwords in FF. Use LastPass.

@op
There is still your outbound firewall (if you have one installed) - have you tried deleting all existing rules and setting to ‘ask’ for all connections. Then only allow processes you trust to connect.
You can also install a free piece of software called Trusteer Rapport that says it will block keyloggers and in fact block any browser process alterations.
(I know it works because it blocks avast BS from injecting the dll that avast uses to monitor for browser process alterations itself - or it did until it was reported and the avast code injection was whitelisted).
