Copy the command and paste it to a terminal, press ENTER and copy the output. Paste it here as an update.

ok try:

sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install flashplugin64-installer

Then close all browsers, then rerun. Gives you 64bit for your 64bit OS
