you can use this add-on

Menu Editor

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/

it will Hide ANY OPTION from the different Menus, but DON'T HIDE ADD-ONS OPTION IN TOOLS MENU OTHERWISE YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SHOW THE HIDDEN OPTIONS AGAIN

Check and tell if its working.

Best bet if the computer is shared, use the Guest account in Windows or give each person that uses the computer their own limited account. Putting a password on an application without putting a password on the Windows account that it's running under gives you no security whatsoever, because they can tamper with the system (installing a keylogger, etc) to get past any security an application can provide.

Antivirus and firewalls are unlikely help you against something that's deliberately installed - you need to limit access to windows itself if you want to be secure and private.
