Alt is used for accesskeys, for the UI or websites (ugh!) and the 
accesskey for the ScrapBook menu is S (that's why the S is underlined).

You could completely turn off that menu by hitting Alt+K to open the 
ScrapBook sidebar, going to Tools -> Settings -> General (in the 
sidebar, not the main Firefox menu bar) and unchecking "Show 'ScrapBook' 
menu in Firefox menubar". You could still access ScrapBook by using 
Alt+K, Tools -> ScrapBook (in the Firefox menu bar), or the ScrapBook 
toolbar button (you'd have to add that from the palette.)
