In the thread "2.19 and Shockwave 11.8.800.94", Thee Chicago Wolf

Adobe Flash for Linux 10.3.182.* and lower (click-to-play) has been
blocked for your protection.

and I'm still on an old Shockwave Flash!!

How do I get the newer/newest version??

TIA

Linux? What OS do you use? Windows or Linux?

Because Linux has 11.2 as the latest (and last) Adobe Flash Player
version. Adobe wont upgrade it further on LInux save security patches.

In any case, if you want to download the latest flash, open google,
search for flash player, go to the adobe download site (it is between
the first search results), select your OS and download and install. Make
sure you untick the additional software button.

"What OS do you use? Windows or Linux?" .... Well, in fact, both!!
Currently Linux, but dual boot Win7.

O.K., so Thee Chicago Wolf might have been on a Windows OS, so found the
11.8.800.115 version of Shockwave Flash. but if there is an 11.2 version
of Shockwave Flash available, why doesn't the
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/blocked/p330 page eventually
allow me to get to the 11.2 download page??

(Thanks for doing the search for me. I almost always forget that!!)



Clicking the "Check to see if you plugins are up to date" link under Add-ons Manager > Plugins, takes me to <https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/> where I'm told my Shockwave Flash 11.2r202 is vulnerable.

Which is interesting because I have the current version 11.2.202.297 installed.

Clicking the "Update Now" button takes me to <http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/> where I can select a Yum, tar.gz, or RPM version of Adobe Flash Player version 11.2.202.297 to download, and install.

I just wait for updates from my OS software management system.

You've been warned, but still continue to run red lights?
