Since the lastest update I keep getting the message that I need to update. Checked, I do indeed have the current. How do I get this annoying thing to go away?

Second, and most importantly, I downloaded adobe flash player which had dissapeared somewhere along the way. Yet when I go to the site that I need it on it keeps saying I need to download it. I'm done that three times now. Checked program list, it shows:block list C:/users/pam/desktop/torbrowser/browser/browser Problem, I don't have tor open. I can't locate flash except with the above. Needless to say I can not open it. While modzilla says it's 50.0 it's actually the current update.

Your Additional System Details shows you have v50.0 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version 50.1

Your Additional System Details shows you have no flash player.

Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.

Flash Player Version: 24.0.0.186
