Hi, uninstall instructions are here.

You can reinstall from here - be sure to deselect the McAfee offer!

More - Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems.

Also, before uninstalling please see if anything here is of any help -

Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

The better place to download Flash player (Plugin-based browsers version) from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html is so as to not get anything but Flash player.

Also it is Firefox and not Foxfire.
