I wanted to look at the stock market in google:

When I right clicked on the flash program which is the moving chart I noticed that I was using version 7. The newest version is 9.
These instructions are for firefox in Ubuntu Edgy Eft.
First click tools and add-ons. Then click on plugins, then go down and click on flash version 9 for windows. It takes you here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
Download option 1. Open the archive file you just downloaded called: install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz and click extract and then extract again and it goes it to a folder on the desktop.
Next open a terminal and type:
cd Desktop
next, type:
cd install_flash_player_9_linux
this takes you into the file that was extracted to the desktop. Now type:
sudo ./flashplayer-installer
now it asks you the root password. Then it asks you for the directory where firefox or what ever browzer you use is. I typed the following:
/usr/lib/firefox
then it will install to that dir ectory, press enter and it should say finished installing.
Now go here and right click on flash movie to see what version you are using.
