I must confess to being a bit of a Luddite, having stuck with my Windows Vista operating system to this day (HP Pavilion PC) simply because it fulfils all my requirements and I am comfortable with it.
However, Firefox - the last browser to support Vista – are finally going cease supporting Vista in August, which I’m told, will render my PC vulnerable to serious security issues.
I don’t do internet banking and I regularly back-up all my important files to CD. My main on-line activities are low-level Ebay trading (incorporating Paypal, where I hold a small balance in my account), some Facebook time and occasional on-line shopping. I have an active subscription with McAfee “All Access” anti-virus system.
Given all the above, what are the risks if I were to continue using Vista with Firefox unsupported?
