But, the infinite install prompt rears its ugly head when sites use the Beta mime type but link to the currently released Silverlight installer instead of the link we asked them to use. We also told people to use a special Beta-specific installer URL so that use of the mime type wouldn't be horrible because the URL goes to a page on mscom/Silverlight that says the site you visited was built against a Beta that is no longer available. We knew ahead of time that the Beta releases would NOT be compatible with the final Silverlight 2 so we gave them special mime types that only work for those Beta releases. On the less obvious and far more common end, I've come across a number of sites that were built to target one of the Silverlight 2 Beta releases and they specify the Beta-specific application/x-silverlight-2-b1 or application/x-silverlight-2-b2 mime types in the object tag.

This isn't common because the site won't work for anyone. On a Mac, check /Library/Internet Plug-Ins to see if ugin is there. Why do I keep getting prompted to install Silverlight on some websites? If you are on Windows, check the Programs Control Panel applet and see if Microsoft Silverlight is is listed as installed. It says it downloads successfully, but when I got to watch say Netflix or use it for one of my online lectures it says that I haven't downloaded it. Silverlight Not Working On My Mac I am able to download Silverlight onto my Mac, but I cannot get it to work.
