Works for me in FireFox 1.0 "preview release".  That is, I can log into 
sportsclubs.ucdavis.edu with my kerberos password.  You say you "fill 
out a form"; for me this is a popup window with username and password 
fields.  Is that what you get?  Do you have any strange settings for 
your browser, like a proxy or such?
