firefox 3/minefield - can't get flash working

I've just upgraded from firefox 2 to firefox 3 and flash has disappeared.  I've tried reinstalling the flashplugin but that didn't help.

If I try to install the plug in directly from Adobe then it won't let me chose the install path /usr/lib/mozilla/ which is what I thought was the correct location.

I've tried completely uninstalling both firefox and flashplugin then reinstalling them but that hasn't worked.

On a new machine with firefox 3 installed from scratch flash works fine.

What do I need to do?

Re: firefox 3/minefield - can't get flash working

I've found out that it isn't me, it is some sites. Looking around I've noticed that flash is working on most sites, it just happened that it was broken on the ones I was working on at the time. I've spoken to the developers and they are using a fancy way to do flash replacement for accessibility and firefox 3 doesn't like the way it is being done.
