I have issue that Mozilla will see in my field for e-mail NOT this value but wrong full name.

How to avoid this?
If IE does not have this issue than seems some trick that Mozilla remembers wrong values..Example: I logged in in shop website and seen after closed browser and restart wrong field value in e-mail address. Is there solution to this?

Are you talking about remembering form fields from within the browser?

Tools->Options->Privacy tab, uncheck "Remember search and form history."

Generally this "remembers" a form field name for a given form, for example, if the form has a field name "email" and you've previously entered your email address for a field named "email" it will populate it.

My guess is that whatever form this is happening on, the form fields have a name that conflicts with what you've previously entered for email.

Either that, or there's an error in your/the page's script, like

<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value = "' . $_POST['fname'] . '">

It could be that IE is overwriting the post value and FF is not. The first would be a bug or quirk, definately not a "feature," the second would not.
