Please open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal and type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install libflashsupport

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

Then please edit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc:

sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc

and modify or add the row:
FIREFOX_DSP="aoss"

Hope this helps
