What's the deal with this error. I have yet to complete the search and
I'd like to get Flash and Acrobat up to date and running. They are both

Plugin Finding Service Error
We've encountered an error. Please try your request again later.

WFM. Must've been a temporary glitch.

What does WFM mean?
"Works For Me." Common abbreviation on support fora like this. Used when
someone else with a similar configuration can't duplicate the problem.
Does "temporary" mean every time I try it, day after day?
Nope. It means what it's always meant out there in the real world.
Is there another way to do this? Maybe everyone in the world is
trying to get updates to this new security block through
plugincheck.
I'm sure that's not it, something else is going on. The usual recipe for
these things is to restart SM with all add-ons disabled, and if that
solves the problem, enable one at a time until the problem recurs.
That's the guilty party.
Oh, and in about:data for mozilla.org under Permissions, the
"addons.mozilla.org sts/subd" is changed from Allow to Block. I
change it back to Allow and it changes back to Block.
I have NEVER had this much trouble with my addons/plugins.
Sorry to hear that.
