FF 30 plugin update in loop or wait
Home user. Desktop running current Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit with all Windows Updates applied. FF 30 has been running OK. I set a few plugins to activate automatically. Then I clicked to check if plugin updates were needed. The check does not complete. It displays the little spinning icon and it just spins forever. Re-cycled FF but that did not help. What to do?
