If you have a 32 bit Firefox version then you need a 32 bit Flash plugin (the current Firefox release for Linux is still 32 bit).

It is usually better to create a symbolic link to the installed Flash plugin rather then copying or moving the plugin.

You can create a plugins folder in the Firefox Profile Folder and create a symlink to the Flash plugin in that folder.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

Thank You both very much, I did not find those sites when I was searching.

I am up and running now.

Thanks again, Pumper05
