Whenever I try to follow the link I get to sent to

https://www.mozilla.com/en/404

instead of

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

I don't know why this started happening, I only noticed it several minutes ago but I wanted to report it.

Thanks. All fixed. However, I do wonder how the link got changed in the first place.

This has been fixed on Mozilla's side in Bug# 752232

It tries to use https://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ and then gave a error instead when redirecting to https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/

Many Mozilla pages that were on mozilla.com have since been either changed to or is being redirected to mozilla.org and sometimes issues have arisen.
