Hi Justin, I don't think 1Password has anything to do with Firefox crashing on startup. There are numerous people using 1Password and Firefox in Snow Leopard without any problems.
For sure there is something in your user account and John's that is not compatible with Firefox. Something that starts when Firefox starts. A plugin, add-on, extension etc that either needs updating, or deleting. Starting Firefox in Safe Mode disables all extensions, add-ons, toolbar customisations etc, but when you Quit Firefox & open it normally all these settings etc are still there. I guess it's a bit like finding 'A needle in a haystack'.
