You're not hearing what I am saying, those are updates to the operating system, not the browser. There are attacks from all angles. Apparently you are not aware you can be attacked without even having a browser open or anything. Well, you can. Just because firefox is updated and you have antivirus does not mean you are safe. Far from it, actually.
Let me put it this way, firefox on XP is not as safe as explorer on 7, since the operating system is out of date. I'm telling you, you're getting operating system and browser updates confused. You proved it right there with your red highlighted information. Microsoft has already left out security updates for XP that their other OS's got, stating that they do not think it's that important, and it was too much work to redesign parts of XP. Go look it up, and not from Microsoft for chrissakes.
