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

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0

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

Open Firefox 3.0 from Applications->Internet->Firefox 3.0 "Gran Paradiso"
Then try to visit a flash video required page for example:
http://www.youtube.com/
the Firefox 3.0 browser install flash player in a working way.
When you open the Firefox (2) it usually start works good with flash.

Hope this helps

then navigate to the updates tab and check 1. important security updates
                                                                       2. recomended updates
                                                                       3. pre-released updates
the click the close button and it will prompt u for reloading click it it will gather all the updates and u will be notified of the updates
install the updates and reboot ur system

then go to this link

http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmultiverse%2Ff%2Fflashplugin-nonfree%2Fflashplugin-nonfree_9.0.48.0.2%2Breally0ubuntu12_i386.deb&md5sum=4c2cde9277e18c47a42ae8efc3720eb7&arch=i386&type=main
