If someone sets up Flash to "ask to activate" like shown in the subject "Set Adobe Flash to "click to play" on Firefox" then where does one find the preferences for the individual sites visited to view what they are set at? For example if one chooses to "allow" the selects to "allow and remember" then changes ones mind where would they be able to see those settings?

Such data is stored in permissions.sqlite. You can use the SQLite Manager extension in Firefox to inspect SQLite databases.

You set the default in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
