Today, Firefox says I need to update Microsoft Silverlight to version 5.1.40905.0. When I head over to the Silverlight site, it says version 5.1.40728.0 is the correct version of Microsoft Windows versions. After doing a little more digging, I found there IS a higher version number, but it's only available for Mac OS X (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3099529). Can we get this fixed, please?
