Why can't I use the Flash executable on my computer to see Flash in FF?

I was able to get the Flash player installed on my work computer (I do not have admin rights). It allows me to see Flash in IE8, but I can't get FF8 to use it.

I realize there is a plug-in, but isn't there also the opportunity to use installed applications to run programs?

There are two different versions of Flash for Windows, the ActiveX version for IE and the Plugin version used by Firefox and most other browsers.
