Why is firefox trying to block flash player when there's no flash content?
I'm getting the message "Firefox has blocked Flash Player because of an outdated plugin".
Fair enough.
Except this is for a Wordpress site I have built that has no content that could conceivably call for the plugin
Why is this?

There's no advertising.
There's a few scripts that call for iframes when activated but no references to 'flash', 'shockwave' or 'adobe' in the source code
W3C.org (World Wide Web Consortium) in charge of browsers, web pages code and future code. Mozilla adheres to the rules and practices and standards that are set by the W3C
So that being said Firefox has been playing a little literal regarding code.
But if code is good should have no problems and can be seen in any browser. Though that can change on any day someone updates a browser (am sure you know). Also Google likes clean code and rankings go up. Got 3 pages on 1st page so guess it works.
Is there any way you can clean up this code ?
