I am using VMWare with a clean WinXP installed. I Use an VPN Connection and additional an SSH-Proxy for connect with TOR. And within TOR i connect to SR.
My VPN/SSH Vendor does not log anything.
Do you mean that is secure enough?
I know, linux is more secure than Windows, but i can not handle with linux :(

It's secure as long as you're using the Tor browser bundle and not your own installation of Firefox. If you are using your own firefox, I hope you've got all scripts and add-ons disabled, no Java installed, no javascript allowed, no Flash installed etc etc.

Yes i use the Tor browser bundle. :)

Then you're fine.
If you wanted to be extra secure, encrypting your VMWare image using something like TrueCrypt wouldn't be a bad idea.

I think you're more secure than 90% of people here. Firefox from the Tor bundle with no java/flash should be fine
