Thanks for the report,

That part of the text was updated in the beginning of february, the link will
now take you to http://plugindoc.mozdev.org (note that this page will just show
you what plug-ins you can install).

To make it clearer, the following was also added:
+
+<p>To see what plug-ins you currently have installed, do any of the following:
+
+  <ul>
+    <li>Open the Help menu and choose About Plug-ins.</li>
+    <li>Click in the Location Bar, type <kbd>about:plugins</kbd> and
+      press <kbd>Enter</kbd>.</li>
+  </ul>
+</p>

However, those changes were not added on the 1.7 branch. Instead they will show
up in the forthcoming SeaMonkey 1.0 release. In order to see the changes  now
you have to use a version of Mozilla/SeaMonkey that is made from the 1.8 branch,
ie Mozilla 1.8 Beta 1 or a SeaMonkey development build.
