1. Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
   • Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
2. Update Shockwave for Director
   • NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
   • Use Firefox to download and SAVE the installer to your hard drive from the link in the article below (Desktop is a good place so you can find it).
   • When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit)
   • locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.
   • Restart Firefox and check your plugins again.

Really? I am running the instant up-dater, and each time I get a single update I check the others. Of course I can't do that right now because Mozilla's Plug-In checker is off-line! Last time I ended up re-installing Speed Dial and having to relocate all my items. It was no fun. I think you are seeing my stuff as out-dated because I just let the default system guesser stand when I posted my problem. I am pretty sure everything is up to date. It is Firefox update that did in Speed Dial cause it was working fine last night when I turned off machine.

"I can't do that right now because Mozilla's Plug-In checker is off-line!"
Try this plugin check link; I just checked, it is working:

You can see your versions of Plugins in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins

"It is Firefox update that did in Speed Dial cause it was working fine last night when I turned off machine."
It is responsibility of add-on developers to keep their products compatible with Firefox's latest versions. They know where to check for updates as they are being developed before release to the public. I suggest you use one of the contact links that I provided earlier to check on the status of an update for Speed Dial or for assistance with your installation of Speed Dial.
