Hi

On my list of plugins, the Shockwave Director plugin flags up as "vulnerable and should be updated". However when i click on the link, instead of taking me to the download page it just takes me to the Check Your Plugins page and fails to do a plugin check as though it doesn't know where the download page is.

The "should be updated" link should go to here https://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ and the plugin check should check against the latest download there as it does with Shockwave Flash

thanks ....

Do you use the Shockwave (for director) Player for anything? as it is used little now days compared to the Flash Player.

From your system details on right of post you seem to have two versions installed on your system, both old.

Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1 Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.2.152

I honestly have no idea if i need it or not. updating the plugin version to 12.2.4.194 has resolved the duplicate details issue.
