Mozilla Opens Plugin Check Site For Firefox Users

Nowadays, most web browsers can be equipped with different handy plugins. There's a catch though: outdated browser plugins can put whole system under threat with their vulnerabilities. Mozilla has promised that its upcoming Firefox 3.6 version will have inbuilt check for installed plugins. While waiting for that release, Firefox users can surf to Plugin Check site to find out if any of their plugins is outdated and needs updating.

Mozilla gave some pre-taste of this new feature in Firefox 3.5.3 and 3.0.14 versions in which it introduced inbuilt check for Adobe Flash Player plugin.
