I think that what you may want to do is disable it properly *before*
removing it, from what I can recall from the old times, I would say you
need to:
- backup your firefox profile (~/.mozilla/firefox in linux)
- move it somewhere else
- launch firefox, that should work now
- install the old conkeror
- put back the backup instead of the new profile
- go to the chrome:// page that have the button for reset the chrome to
default
- remove the conkeror extension

Out of the top of my head, hope this will help you even if it's not very
accurate :)
