plugincheck.js contains 0.7.0.
0.7.2+ can detect Adobe Reader on IE.
Component: www.mozilla.com → plugins.mozilla.org
QA Contact: www-mozilla-com → plugins-mozilla-org
Unfortunately PluginDetect doesn't support ActiveX (IE) version of RealPlayer even with the latest version of the library. It would be nice to have it. (Ask the author?)
Changed the importance to "Critical". Right now Plugin Check for Internet Explorer is a SECURITY FLAW since it gives wrong information (ad es. a specific plugin version is considered secure while it is NOT) potentially harmful.

ozten: what's required to update the version of PluginDetect to the current version (0.74) and/or is there a workaround for this?
(In reply to comment #4)
It's not clear that we want to update to 0.74. We'll want a solid couple of days of dev to look at the pros/cons, make the change, and then fixup any broken plugins.m.o data. Will require a full WebQA pass.
