-> VB Extensions to previous version links still to 5.0.26
Please update link accordingly.
BTW: The VB GUI once installed does not show a message that a extensions update is available.

Re: Link to VB Extensions 5.0.28 wrong on download page
The text in the Downloads page is:
So, technically speaking the link is correct, because it says if you're using 5.0.26 download the 5.0.26 ExtPack. They may need to update the whole thing, unless they're holding back. Maybe that's why there's no update in the GUI as well...If you are using VirtualBox 5.0.26, please download the extension pack here.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

Re: Link to VB Extensions 5.0.28 wrong on download page
Scrolling down the Downloads page is the Older Builds link, where 5.0 versions, then 5.0.28 installers and extension pack are available.
I vaguely remember an Oracle guy (which one I can't remember though) saying that they don't push the latest version into the GUI update warner for a little while, until early adopters who manually download try it for a while. May be wrong, though....
