Hello Mark, I think you are taking a much bigger risk running an obsolete OS which Microsoft is about to stop supporting. It's now 3 OS's behind the current one and was inherently a much less secure environment.
I trust my security to Win 7 updated fully, a good AV, anti-malware and a proper firewall.
My main gripe with Firefox is that they plunged headlong into making a Chrome clone and I am comfotable with a traditional browser, simple as that. Adblock Plus works happily with 3.62, if that changed I would probably move over to Seamonkey.
For ultimate security on a low spec' machine you would of course be wiser to use Ubuntu, Mint or one of the other popular Linux distributions.
