are you fucking stupid?
you have a gaping security hole the size of the solar system, the security patches for Windows are beyond vital to apply.
there's no polite way to put this
one wrong click, even on a legitimate website that ends up with some dodgy code and your entire system is compromised even if you don't realise it, such exploits are widespread too, regardless of browser. nobody should EVER be running unpatched Windows online, it's probably the single most stupid thing you can do in this day and age.
I sincerely hope you don't have any payment information, or passwords to online services (ftp, blog etc.) stored on your PC, because they're almost certainly already in the wrong hands just waiting to be used.
worse still, you're actually authoring software from a potentially compromised box, with what you've just said nobody in their right mind should touch anything you upload.
sorry to grill you on this, but this is basic security stuff that anybody over the age of about 12 should already be aware of, it's not some joke that can be ignored.
