There is a Pale Moon repository for Debian Wheezy. (I copied all this from the

Bingo. But the last palemoon needs gtk stuffs newer than wheezy has, so
while I was there, I didn't download it THIS time. It was several months
ago when I put it in. And its been running rougher recently.

Steven Pusser's repo appears after you download Pale Moon. Steven Pusser is one of the MX Linux Devs but I
can't see him
doing that to your machine.
In that event, neither can I. I must have added that repo because it
had something I wanted and have forgotten both when and what.
Hopefully you have backups as the machine should
really be rebuilt.
That I do, amanda runs every night.
Rebuilt to debian amd64 stretch 9.4, iso coming in now. Next is
firmware updates for seagate 2T drives and get another. Then burn a
couple dvd's and a cd of the seagate firmware. And a fresh flash of
my router's dd-wrt. Busy day ahead.

You will please note that there is also a repository for Pale Moon that is
maintained by another person, one Lazlo Kovacs.
I myself haven't tried the Kovacs repo, nor Wheezy or Stretch; so far I've
just used the Debian Jessie version. I assume that they all work about as
well as one another.
I have commented out the repository for Jessie, since you don't use it, and I
wouldn't want you downloading something by mistake.
