Yep, most bank machines use a version of XP, IIRC it’s called Windows Embedded, that is still supported by Microsoft. There’s even a registry hack that enables any XP box to continue receiving updates. I didn’t bother with it because my XP machine has excellent malware protection and I avoid dubious emails & websites, especially on that machine as I use it as my backup & archive repository.
