Problem with the "check to see if you plugins are up to date" Link in the Add-ons Manager.
Whenever I try to follow the link I get to sent to
https://www.mozilla.com/en/404
instead of
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
I don't know why this started happening, I only noticed it several minutes ago but I wanted to report it.

Thank you, that fixed it.
A report in bugzilla was filed. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752161
Thanks. All fixed. However, I do wonder how the link got changed in the first place.
This has been fixed on Mozilla's side in Bug# 752232
It tries to use https://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ and then gave a error instead when redirecting to https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
Many Mozilla pages that were on mozilla.com have since been either changed to or is being redirected to mozilla.org and sometimes issues have arisen.
