Fairly recently, I have been getting plug in error messages that freeze my browser up for minutes at a time. This happens on multiple websites. I have tried to update my add-ons, but I am having issues even updating those. For example, I am running on adobe acrobat 10.1.1.33 and my browser tells me it is out of date. I click to update, and it takes me to a page that says the plug in has been blocked. It will not allow me to update through that avenue. I click the general 'check to see if your plug ins are up to date,' but on that page, I am told that the plug in IS up to date. I have tried manually installing the different updates I need (as this is happening with several different plug ins) but the update is apparently not applying. I have also done a general firefox 'reset' and am completely up to date. I just want the freezing and constant error messages to go away.
