Any of them, however Silverlight is a Microsoft cross-browser plug-in that's used to play and protect the Netflix content and it needs to be updated often.


Sometimes one has to uninstall and reinstall it



Uninstall Silverlight: https://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/get-started/install/removing-silverligh t-mac.aspx


Reinstall Silverlight: https://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx



Check the staus of all your installed plug-ins here

Did you just delete it off the Dock?


I lost my Safari /other on the Dock! "poof" "?"



Or is it totally gone from your machine? Because this isn't easy to do by accident in 10.7 or later.
