Build : Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b7pre) Gecko/20100929 Firefox/4.0b7pre

My version of Flash plugin is 10.1.82.76.
Plugin check displays that my version is vulnerable, because a new version of this plugin is available 10.1.85.3.

But, even if in AOM my "Update add-ons automatically" option is ticked, no flash plugin update takes place.

Addo-ons are not Plugins. We don't support updating Plugins.

AOM means Add-Ons Manager.
There is a Plugin pane in AOM.
So plugins are add-ons.

But we don't support plugin updates and that is the reason why we have the plugincheck page instead.
You can either suggest to change the wording from "addon" to "Extension" or make this an enhancement request.
Matthias,
I am talking about FF 4.0 not FF 3.6.
Anyway, there is no link to plugin check in FF 4.0.
Need to do the outdated info in the blocklist thing but apparently we don't ever want to do that.
