www.cnn.com is telling me that my version of flash-player is out of date

On this F21 system I am using:
adobe-linux-x86_64.repo
which has in it:
baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/x86_64/
yum.log shows:
Jan 19 18:08:31 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.429-release.x86_64
Jan 26 08:51:24 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.440-release.x86_64
So supposedly I am current to Jan 26. But cnn is not a happy camper. There
have been a couple other sites complaining as well. Even one that said my
version of Firefox was out of date, but that was only a warning.
Go to about:plugins in Firefox, if the displayed version of Adobe
Flash isn't *.440, try deleting
~/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILE_NAME/pluginreg.dat and refresh
about:plugins or restart Firefox.
I've hit a similar issue recently on a different website.
I just installed the 64 bit rpm for version 442 of flash I
downloaded from Adobe's website, put a symlink into
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins (the upstream version of 64 bit firefox
looks for its plugins in /usr/lib) to where the rpm placed the
plugin, remove pluginreg.dat, started firefox and issued
about:plugins which firefox says it is picking up from
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins but it says the version is 11.2.202.310
still, why is this occurring?
Seems likely that SOMEWHERE there is still a copy of the old version
that FF is finding instead of the one you want.
$ grep -A1 /libflashplayer.so pluginreg.dat
I've just booted linux after getting home from work, started firefox and
checked the plugins and firefox is now showing the right version, seems
that I had to reboot linux for the rpm installation and the symlinks to
take effect. On reflection maybe the ldconfig cache was causing issues
as this would have been refreshed with the reboot.
