Can you restore all the prefs and addons you changed to what they were
before and try the following package?

https://people.debian.org/~glandium/firefox-esr_60.2.0esr-1~deb9u2.2_i386.deb
sha256: 4f092e11faf729316ea96be5b9f6ecca58ea1f001279c44406a8d505b021c17f

(Others who have experienced the crash on startup are invited to try
this package as well)

Thanks

Mike
