It doesn't matter much if you are using linux... the results are usually
inaccurate. See:

<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=992583>
(plugin check incorrectly identifies linux vlc and gecko-mediaplayer as
vulnerable)
and
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=942356>
(Flash reported as out of date (linux Incorrect pluginreg.dat))
Note that I filed the bug for SeaMonkey, yet the 'devs' decided it was
fixed (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=942356#c35) because
they managed to fix it in Firefox.

In SeaMonkey (linux) 2.29.1 plugin check is showing:
Adobe Flash PlayerShockwave Flash 11.2 r202     vulnerable
11.2.202.406
Yet:
<http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/>
Linux   Mozilla, Firefox, SeaMonkey (Flash Player 11.2 is the last
supported Flash Player version for Linux. Adobe will continue to provide
security updates.)      11.2.202.406

So I just give up checking on any linux SeaMonkey version that I'm using.
