      Try FlashAid. It's been mentioned here numerous times. There are many advantages for using it, not the least of which is that it purges older versions.

          Sweet Flash aid fixed it well as my usual methods of correcting this problem did not work.

          ps. it has happened 3 times on different computers all vanilla setups. not sure what causes it other than it usually happend after a flash update occurs.

            Flash works here on my laptop as well, and it (Flash) was updated today: flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree

              I had a similar problem - downgrade was a solution.
              Updating the drivers of my videocard (intel i855) ensured the new version works.
