Have you installed flash?

If not run:

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

If you have flash installed, you maybe have multiple flash plugins installed and this will cause issues. If you can provide the output of:

uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf

Then we can diagnose.
