Actually, it sounds like at some point in time, someone "saved" the username/password in your browser so you may not get the dialog if the browser authenticates in the background. Try deleting all saved passwords on that browser on that machine and try again.
When the script run , it launche the firefox brower and type the URL in browser.
authentication pop up dialog come which is expected . But i am confused why we the username and password in authentication dialog is already prefilled. however in the script we are passing the username and password to those username and password textfields.
Let me know if you need more information
Go into Firefox where the failure is happening and delete any saved logins you find and then try the test again.

There are some firefox settings mentioned in the testcomplete documenation. After the recent upgrade patch for TestComplete , we also upgraded the firefox and follow the setting as mentioned in TestComplete documenation for firefox. https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/general/preparing-browsers/firefox.html
I am under the impression these setting sometimes do not get preserved once we updgrade to latest version of firefox. I have to check the setting after firefox upgrade and found some of the setting get lost.
