Completely disable "this plugin is vulnerable and should be updated" page.

Is there a way to either completely disable this check, or allow a global pass for all websites?
I am aware that I can add individual websites by clicking the icon in the location bar and telling it to always load plugins to that particular site, however for the particular project I am configuring firefox for this is unfortunately not an option - if I can't turn this off I will need to look into other browser options which would be an incredible pain as right now the setup is perfected minus this one point.
I have had a look in the about:permissions page and the only option there for Plugins is 'Allow' or 'Always ask'. I have this set to allow but clearly that the above warning is not influenced by this.

I'll offer a reason why someone would not want to update Flash in particular, in this case it's me, and the reason is simple. Updates after 11.1.102.63 don't function in full screen mode on my 1.4ghz Celeron powered, Windows XP Media Center version 2002 w/service pack 3 computer.
Get a new computer you say? Not in the budget.
You're at risk you say? Yep.
It's a shame that Flash isn't backwards compatible to this poor computers heyday. I always tell Flash NO never update, but now Firefox is forcing Flash to be disabled against my wishes and causing me to click on everything Flash if I want it to run. In one sense I don't mind since it's like a built in ad blocker I guess. In another it's quite annoying and I simply want an option to tell Firefox "Yes, I know that. Do as I say anyway."

  • Adobe Flash: This plugin is vulnerable and should be updated.

    I am not a fan of Adobe as they are very Microsoft-centric. When they stopped support for Linux they lost my support. I have been spoiled by running a dated Adobe Flash plugin. My pages load so much faster and I only see the plugin actually execute Flash when I click to allow it. This means I get a 2nd benefit of being able to have more tabs and windows open without bogging down my system.
    Is there any way I can update my Adobe Flash to the current version and continue to enjoy the benefits of "This plugin is vulnerable and should be updated"? Please feel free to limit answers only to the current release of Firefox/Mozilla.
    Thanks!

    One thing to add since you mentioned it: I'm posting from a linux test system that runs 3.6.13 to support a specific need and is unrelated to the question.
    The question was posed based upon systems running 21.

  • Plugin check says that Java 1.6.0_29 is vulnerable and should bl updated on Mac when 1.6.0_29 is current and is already on the machine. Glitch?

    Mozilla Plugin Check gives a vulnerable warning for Java, even though its up to date on the page it sends you to.

    We have just upgraded the JRE to 1.6.0_29 which has added additional security and caused our part of our application fail.
    Try going to 1.6.0.27
    See release note for .29
    RMI Registry Issue
    A bug in the rmiregistry command included in this release may cause unintended exceptions to be thrown when an RMI server attempts to bind an exported object which includes codebase annotations using the "file:" URL scheme. The RMI servers most likely to be effected are those which are invoked only by RMI clients executing on the same host as the server.
    RMI annotates codebase information as part of the serialized state of a remote object reference to assist RMI clients in loading the required classes and interfaces associated with the object at runtime. Exported objects which are looked up in the RMI registry and invoked by RMI clients running on hosts other than the server are usually annotated with codebase URL schemes, such as "http:" or "ftp:" and these should continue to work correctly.
    As a workaround, RMI servers can set the java.rmi.server.codebase property to use codebase URLs other than the "file:" scheme for the objects they export.

  • The Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82 plugin check says "VULNERABLE" and suggest an update for Adobe flash player 10.1. It may disable my antivirus. Is this safe? Is it the right update?

    I have Firefox 3.6.10.
    When I checked for plug-ins updates, it opened the "plug-in check" page and showed the Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82 as "vulnerable", explaining a potential security vulnerability and suggesting to update to latest version if existent, or if not,disable the plugin.
    The Adobe security advisory suggests to upgrade to the newest version Adobe Flash Player 10.1.85.3.
    When I click on it, it says Adobe Flash Player 10.1 only. It also says: "You may have to temporarily disable your antivirus software". Is this safe? Also: how do I know that the 10 . 1 version is the same as the 10.1.85.3 version?

    The [http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ Adobe Flash Player] page refers to 10.1, but the full version details for the latest release is 10.1 r85 which is a security update. You can get it from the above link, or use the manual installers available from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
    You should not have to disable the Anti-virus software in order to install Flash, only do that if is is interfering with the installation.

  • Setting geo.enabled to false does not stop websites from knowing location. Seems to be related to my proxy setting.....Any ideas on how to completely disable this?

    Setting geo.enabled to false does not stop websites from knowing location. It changes based off of what proxy I am using. Is there a way to completely disable this?

    I use Comcast in the Chicago area market and have a problem with the "Opt Out" stopping about once a year or so. It appears as being enabled at the Comcast Opt Out page, but the unresolved addresses are still going to the DNS "domain helper" service.
    What works for me is to turn off the opt out preference, log off from that Comcast account, and close Firefox. When I restart Firefox, log in to Comcast, and then set the pref to "opt out" again - it works as intended and doesn't cause me a problem until it happens like 10 to 12 months later.
    As far as why it seems to affect browsers in a different way, I have no idea. I do have Safari, Opera, and IE 8 installed, in addition to multiple versions of Firefox, but I don't use those other browsers enough to have seen a difference. I am usually opening pages from within Firefox in those other browsers to view the difference, ''or to print something that Firefox screws up in the Print Preview''.

  • Okay, so i was on craigslist and found a guy who would trade me his  fairly new Macbook 2008 model for my brand new iPad 2. Is this a good deal and should i go throuh with it?

    Okay, so i was on craigslist and found a guy who would trade me his  fairly new Macbook 2008 model for my brand new iPad 2. Is this a good deal and should i go throuh with it?

    A deal is only a good deal if you get the best value out of the deal.
    If you need a MacBook more than an iPad or an iPad more than a MacBook, then it's a good deal.
    Comes down to what value the use of the product is to you.

  • Trying to completely disable "this connection is untrusted" dialog

    I'm trying to completely disable the "this connection is untrusted" dialog. I've had this issue since 3.5 when the security model was changed. There used to be a plugin that reduced the amount of time it took to get through this dialog, but it stopped working with 4.0.
    Issues:
    I am a systems administrator that managages 1000's of servers & devices. A large number of these have internal websites, and they can be replaced/change frequently (HP ILO's, temporary dev websites, switches, etc.). the frequency of the turnover and the effort to create and assign a certificate to each of these websites would cause a lot more effort then going through the dialog choices. however, the dialog choices frequently slow my work down on a regular basis. Adding an excemption for each website would not work due to the frequently changing nature of my environment.
    So to sum up:
    I want to completely and utterly turn off/remove the "this connection is untrusted" dialogs from my Firefox. It will save me (and others I would imagine) time and effort to simply disable this dialog completely. I don't care how obscure it would be to get to work, as long as it's an option and it only has to be done once.

    '''I am so tired of firefox telling me "This Connection is Untrusted"!!!!!!!!''' I'm tired of having to add exceptions, I'm tired of the extra tiny lag time of loading while it checks sites, I'm tired of typing the URL I want into the URL window only to look up to see that the lag time has now caused my cursor to stop typing in the URL window and has now started searching in my Google homepage halfway through my typing!!
    Firefox, '''GIVE US A CHOICE of whether we want secure browsing on or off''' or I am OFF YOU and onto another browser!!!~~!!~!~!!!~!!! Quit forcing things on us like Facebook does with no options to opt in or out if we so choose.

  • When a Firefox update disables a critical plugin (in my case Elastic Fox) then I have to delete the update and reinstall the prior version. Is there a way to know if an update will disable a plugin BEFORE I install the Firefox update?

    This happens between major and even minor Firefox changes.

  • My iPhone 4 doesn't reconnect once it says 'No Sevice' and should I update my phone to iOS 6.1.2?

    This has happened before, my iphone will not connect to any network once I go out places with wifi, so I went to the Apple Store and they gave me a new one.
    Now I have had this one since June and it started not reconnecting to any network and I have to switch on and off the airplane mode in order to get the network back. Do people in Apple Store know how to fix this or is there actually any way to fix it?
    I am using 3 so I don't know if they could be the problem.
    Also, will updating it to iOS 6.1.2 help with this problem? However, I have seen a lot of posts saying their battery die really quickly after updating it , so I don't know if I should update it. My phone is not insuranced anymore so I don't want to risk.

    If it really is an iPhone 3Gs and not an iPhone 3G...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...

  • Itunes issue! using itunes 10.7 (21) on a macbook pro OSX 10.7.5 - everytime I launch itunes it asks to connect to the itunes store and asks for login details. have to cancel twice. how do I disable this or login once and make it remember my details?

    Even when I'm not connected to the internet it pops up with an error that its trying to connect to the store. Its very annoying. I have disabled the store in preferences> parental > checked the box saying Disable: itunes store. No success! Please someone help. :(

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

  • Ffirefox reads disabled for plugins Real player and Adobe flash player even when I enabled both. Why?

    There is a typed message that cant be removed in Firefox beside some plugins like Real Player 15t... and Flashplayer. So it seems that even though I downloaded both and enabled them, nothing is happening and when I connect to a site it says I need flashplayer 11.

    Your User Agent string shows that you do not have those plugins installed.
    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:

  • The back of my iphone gets really warm on the left hand side where the sim car is,is this a problem? and should i take it back to apple?

    as above really,getting concerned it will slow the phone down or do some damage,cheers

    There are two iPhone 4 models:
    the GSM iPhone 4 uses a sim card for accessing the cellular network and is provided by the carrier,
    the CDMA iPnoe 4 does not have a removable sim card and cannot be unlocked for use on anyother network than the one it comes locked to.
    If you have an iPhone 4 that does not have a removable sim card, then it is locked to a CDMA cellular network and cannot be used with another carrier.

  • PP scenario to complete the production order without GR and No stock update

    Hi Experts,
    I have a very typical PP scenario here. Let me explain,
    I want to create a production order (CO01) add operations to it and do the confirmation. As set, the cost will get updated against the production order. This is perfect.
    Now the trick is, i actually DONT want to update the stock of the material. That is, the goods reciept should not happen. But at the same time, I need to have the count of how much is delivered in the production order.
    I was thinking of having new movement type created (that would statiscally do the goods reciept without updating the actual stock of the material). Would this suffice, or do you guys have any other way of getting the count in the production order without having the goods reciept done.
    Thanks for your early reply.
    Beatle

    Dear ,
    If you want to avoid inventory issues as well as cost issue , i think  you can bring the Confirmation -Yeild field as Delevered quianity in a Z-report  .You can also utilise COOIS-Select Confirmation -Standrad Profile -Enter Order Type and Plant Code .Here you can select the change lay out option and bring the  confirm yeild qty  field from Hidden column  to diplay colmn for all these  orders .
    You can use following tabel  for your custom report or utlise coois for the same
    1.AFRU -Confiramtion
    2.GMNGA-Yeild Confirmed
    3.LMNGA-Yeild to confirm .
    Regards
