Sometimes the plugin check sites links you to an update's release notes instead of the installer. Not sure why that happens. Here are some alternate links:

Flash Player (Shockwave Flash): http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ (make sure to uncheck any unwanted extras before downloading)

Java plugin: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp (make sure to uncheck any unwanted extras during installation)
