I install flash player in Firefox now I can not get flash to play. I used to be able you can add a site to the permissions to get it to play. Now you can't. Why? Firefox is not worth using anymore without flash because every site that has video or games won't work anymore. Way to go Mozilla you just stubbed yourself in the foot.
