:tomcat - does this really need to be a private bug?

I am sorry that you experienced this.
I did try to prevent it.
See bug 1060905

On testing again about 11:00 PDT, on Wed Sep 3 2014
I can confirm that the UK version of Plugincheck is now
reporting "Adobe Acrobat" version 11.0.8.4 as "Up to Date" - CORRECT.

Please test again.

If all is OK, I propose that you, phoenix22, close this bug as a
Duplicate of bug 1020133 "Improve Adobe Acrobat plugin reporting".

The 'redirect back to plugincheck' is, sadly, also a known issue
when using the 'new plugincheck - uses the JSON List'.
See bug 1023718
"Plugin checker for newly installed FF 30.0 shows Adobe Acrobat
plugin "vulnerable" but update button just reloads plugin checker"

Two more points:

1. As you noted the "Adobe Acrobat" plugin was WRONGLY reported as
> Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-In
See bug 1053417.

2. For more background, history, list of some outstanding bugs, comments on tests:
see bug 956905 comment # 148.
