Plug-ins are up to date, but Firefox plug-in checker shows them as out of date.

The plug-ins checker shows Flash to be out-of-date, but Adobe's plug-in checker shows that I am up-to-date. Also Firefox's about:plugins page shows that my Flash is the correct version. I have erased the pluginreg.dat file and it did not solve the problem. Any other suggestions or is this your plug-ins checker again?

Your installed Flash 11.3.300.257 version is the latest available for Mac, so that is OK.

There only has been released a Flash 113.300.262 update for the Windows platform.
So it looks that the plugin check page doesn't take your platform into account.

Thanks, I thought it was something like that.
