Since Firefox 34.0.5 was installed yesterday the page in Firefox to handle the Plugin don't work anymore.

Al my settings were changed. All plugins were inactivated. Some of them I were not able to activate again.

Some were blocked and it said I should update them. However these plugins were updated just a couple of days ago! When I clicked on the update button I just came to a nonsense page https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/sv-SE/firefox/blocked/p178 that offered no help and no explanation how a 3 day old plugin could be old.

What's the meaning of this new feature?

Best wishes, Lars

hello lars, in fact there is an update for shockwave flash available (version 16) - you can download the latest version of flashplayer from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html (use the windows & plugin-based browsers exe-link)

also your java plugin could need an update: https://www.java.com/de/download/windows_xpi.jsp

To everyone responding that the link provided is old (from 2012), be assured that Firefox is indeed linking to a page from 2012 when you click the Update button. This is in 2015. The link goes that that 2012 page. The original poster isn't mistaken. Firefox is really linking to a useless 2012 page instead of to somewhere that updates the plugin, which the link implies.
