My version of Firefox is 17, and the newest version is 22. Should I be concerned about security threats?

I feel a bit like Goldilocks after reading that! I wasn't aware of ESR versions of Firefox and always found the frequent FF updates tiresome - so I can imagine that large organisations would have found them a real headache!
