If trying to update from a web page, (check plugins, then update) it shows a blank page (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer). I've tried for two days now.

When going to add-ons and clicking update, it brings me to a page that says it's blocked because it's not updated :-/

Comon. Does it really have to be this difficult to update flash? Firefox should stay updated with this automatically.

hello, firefox cannot update flash automatically, since it's a separate product by adobe (it should have an auto-updater though, don't know why this isn't working in your case).

your problem rather seems to be that you cannot access the mentioned website. does that happen when you try it with other browsers on your computer too?

if you can't solve it this way, it might be an issue with malware on your pc. run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the free version of malwarebytes & microsoft safety scanner.

Actually for 2 days the website wouldn't open. Now it opens. Just got it fixed.

A big problem is that clicking 'update' from Firefox > Add-Ons > Plugins > Update Flash, doesn't bring you to the update, it brings you to a "This plugin is BLOCKED" page.

I had to go to a youtube video, click activate, then click check plugins, then wait for them all to check, find flash, then go to the update page (the one that wasn't loading for 2 days... Maybe a DNS issue).
