I recently ran MacKeeper and Silverlight stopped working. I have installed the new version of Silverlight 6, but it doesn't show up in Ad-Ons. My Ad-Ons shows Silverlight 5.1 and is checked to always activate. However when I try to load a movie, I get a message that Silverlight is blocked.

Hi visualculture, Certain versions of Silverlight have been blocked because of vulnerability issues. There is still an option on the page it is being blocked to "Activate Silverlight"
