Hello,

Just today the shockwave flash plugin stopped working.

When I click "update now" it shows me this: http://i.imgur.com/ioqZxXu.png

When I'm on the plugin check page, there is NOTHING about updating my plugin. I went and installed the latest version of flash player, yet, it still is not working in FireFox.

In Opera it works fine, and the games on my computer that require flash work fine.

hi, the latest version of flash that you should update to is Flash Player 18.0.0.194 - it fixes various vulnerabilities that are actively exploited in the wild. if you have problems with the normal update, then try to use the adobe offline installer available at https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html instead - for firefox please choose the windows exe-installer for plugin-based browsers on that site.

I should be updated to the latest version considering I went to the Adobe site and downloaded it again.
