I was asked to update my 'shockwave director' which I did. I then refreshed the page and when I checked to see that it was done, it said update. I did this a total of three times and it is still saying to me to update this plug-in. I do not know what the problem is

Have the same problem. The update takes you to the same version 12.0.2.122 that you already have. Suggest we wait for a day or two.

Seems I am not the only one...:) I went through the same thing with Java a few months ago-thought I never would get that fixed. But eventually it corrected.

Glad to know I also am in good company with checking my Plug-ins everyday before starting anything on my computer....I seem to have less problems with my computer than anyone else I know.

I am so glad to know you Mozilla Firefox people are out there, looking out for us....THANK YOU!
