Adobe's corporate blog indicates that Flash will no longer be maintained
or distributed after the end of 2020.  See

Danny, the (lat/new)est version from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. 
Currently, it is at 32.0.0.330. FYI, Adobe usually release a new version 
every second Tuesday of each month. Once in a while, there is no new 
version and a new version not on the second Tuesday of the month.

Where is the email from, and what are you doing when you receive it?

The web site should show a notification when it requires Flash.

A news feed in the SeaMonkey Mail window that requires flash should 
also show a notification.

https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/blocked/p1246


Okay, I just wanted to clarify, because Mozilla doesn't offer plugins,
and doesn't have a plugins site. :)

The page at Tools-->Add-ons_Manager-->Plugins lists the plugins you have
already installed.

Plugins are offered by third-parties, and are not installed by SeaMonkey.


As noted upthread, when a plugin is outdated, Tools | Add-ons Manager | 
Plugins will have a link to "Update now," which unfortunately doesn't 
take the user to the publisher's update page, but to an explanation of 
the reason for the block. This should be fixed.

What Mozilla plugin site are you referring to?


Per exemple https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
Where we can see:

Adobe Flash Player
Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

v. 22.0.0.209 vulnerable


That's what you have now, not what they're offering.

I go to Tools - Add-ons Manager - Plugins -
Show me for Shockwave Flash - a line with
- a red text: Shockwave flash is known to be vulnerable and should be
udated
- a link labelled "Update now".

This link Is WHAT SM OFFER ME .
If I click on it SM brings me to that page:
https://blocklist.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/blocked/p1274

INSTEAD OF "Update" the plugin to have a non-blocked one.


OK, you're right that following the "Update now" link from Tools | 
Add-ons Manager | Plugins does misdirect you to the explanation of the 
reason for the block. That's not what we were discussing, but yes, it is 
a problem and I agree it should be fixed.



https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

Where You see the bad version with the button "UPDATE NOW"

Who brings me to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Where I see Version 23.0.0.162


Yes, this is what we were discussing; thanks for confirming that it 
works correctly.

OK 

Now I will be able to update my plugin 

But what a hassle 

It would be more simple if the first link "Update now" in the Shockwave 
Flash line of the plugin part of add-ons manager
point directl to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ instead of the 3 
more steps to reach this page.

You are right about the file size, I'm not sure how you got it from their site. 
When I try
it, I just get the installer stub. Can you give an exact URL where you obtain 
the 19,672kb
file.


https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=FP_23_for_Firefox_-_NPAPI=1

It is the complete FP23x.  It is not a 1k stub.  I moved it to another
computer and installed it with network disconnected.
Perhaps it is regional and you and Desiree are not allowed to download it.
I don't know.  It has always worked for me. Since this is a SM group I
assumed that you were trying to install the NPAPI version and not the MSI 
version.
If you are trying to install in IE then you will need the MSI version.

btw, I reverted to FP 18.0.0.375 stable version since v23 would not run

A possible solution to this on Windows (outside of SM) is to visit
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/strategies/sms.html
click the download link (of interest) ending in "SCUP.cab"
You should now be able to extract the XML file from the CAB file using 7-Zip
Inside the XML file are the links to the MSI files, see the "OriginUri"
attributes.

There is only one way to download the full exe since the distribution 
page is now blocked for most.


https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html

Look under the section "Still Having Problems?"   There you can download 
the full, off line installer to disk.

an out-of-date version and says it's "blocked".


Yes. What you have is outdated and vulnerable so it's blocked.


I think it's pointing to the site https://addons.mozilla.org/


If you click the link at the top, "Check to see if your plugins are up 
to date," you'll be taken to 
<https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/>. Below "Common plugins you 
should check often," you'll see "Adobe Flash Player" listed with your 
current version and a diagnosis (mine says "up to date," but yours will 
probably say "outdated"). You'll also see, below that, "All plugins" -- 
click that to diagnose all your plugins.


At any rate, if your version of Flash is outdated, you'll see a big 
orange button, "Update now." That will take you to the Adobe page where 
you can download and/or install the latest version. My personal 
preference is to save the installer, close SM, and then run it from my 
download directory; YMMV. By the same token, my personal preference is 
to reject the bundled software (McAfee, Chrome, whatever); YMMV. When 
you're done, Adobe will launch SM and send you to a thank-you page. You 
should re-run the detection routine (CTRL-SHIFT-A) to confirm that you 
now have the latest version -- if all is well, it will now say "up to 
date" and "Always activate."

Does the "update now" button /really/ install the same vulnerable 
version, or does it offer the latest version as expected? That would be 
a shocking change from the policy that has existed for years.

When I go to "Tools: Addons Manager : Plugins" there's an entry for
"Shockwave Flash", but it doesn't work. I'm not sure if it ever worked.

"Flash Player Plugin 22.0.0.192 to 22.0.0.211 (click-to-play) has been
blocked for your protection."

I know I can install it via the operating system, but I don't like the
official web based Adobe installation process.



It's blocked because that version is out of date.  Current version is
23.0.0.162.  You can try Check for updates in the add-ons manager.  If
that doesn't work your only alternative is to go to the Adobe site and
use their process.



Or go to Control Panel in Windows and use the Java applet to update.

Yes, I'd been using the old URL to get to the MSI files, but they've 
taken it down now. I did apply for distribution rights, but I'd rather 
be able to do it through SM.

My distro is Linux Mint 17.2.

While looking through my Software Manager application for something 
else, I came across adobe-flash-properties-gtk and 
adobe-flash-properties-kde both not installed. Both packages provide a 
control panel for the Flash plugin.


Not installing them, but maybe you want to have a look.

Oddly enough, the pepper flash player in the Linux version of Chrome

works in Seamonkey or Firefox.

I am not crashing but I can no longer go to full screen any more.
However, I am on SM 2.36. It's likely something that's not fixed in
2.33.1 that is in later version of SM. You could always try the 2.35
contrib build
(https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-release-windows32/)
which *should* wind up being what is basically built from FF 38.1ESR
release to be released soon. Keep your installer for 2.33.1 handy in
case you need to revert back.


Is that an official build that QA testers are using for the final release?


I think so yes. It was Phil Chee who was mentioning it being built in
the How Dead is Seamonkey thread from a couple days ago.

Thanks. From those links, I don't see them mention about Flash?


I would imagine you'd have to dig through the Firefox bugs to see what
Flash stuff got fixed between FF36 and FF39. So what I am saying is
that between SM 2.33.1 and SM 2.35 (or 2.36), this crashing may have
been fixed but you would have to find out that info on your own.
Personally, I'm having good luck thus far on 64-bit SM 2.36.


It seems like Firefox and other Mozilla web browsers are having crashes 
too. Also, Adobe will be releasing another version this week so I am 
going to wait. I think this is an Adobe's issue, not Mozilla's and

anyone else noticing this too or just me?

(https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-release-windows32/)
which *should* wind up being what is basically built from FF 38.1ESR
release to be released soon. Keep your installer for 2.33.1 handy in
case you need to revert back.


Is that an official build that QA testers are using for the final release?

I am not having crashes with the new Flash plugin.  Maybe that is 
because I use Mac OS (an older version of it)?  I am also now using SM 2.35.

Haven't seen it on my Win7 system, FWIW.

But I have noticed over the years that the Flash installers often don't 
remove older versions of the plugin. I have no special reason to think 
that's a problem, but whenever I notice it I delete them.

Not having any problems with Flash here on CNN or Fox News tests.

But I'm using Linux with Flash 11.2.202.378
