CCG, yours was the most recent of these threads I could find, and your go-to-the-source procedure worked for me in my old MacBook--the 10.5.8. one. I can now stream Netflix over Firefox on that machine just fine. Thanks!
But I can't make it happen in my new MacBook Pro, 10.9.3. I go through all the install steps, no problem. But all I can open afterward is a Silverlight Preferences dialogue box. In my hard drive it shows up as a Silverlight alias. And when I try to return to the Microsoft page to verify installation (as CCG suggests in conclusion, above), there's no recognition of the plugin--just the same 'download now!' message I saw the first time around.
Massively frustrating! Isn't newer = better? I guess I won't be recycling the old white one with the bulging battery anytime real soon. Anyone with hints for making Silverlight run on a newer MacBook, please give a shout.
