I go to a video page, eg YouTube, and nothing plays. I try to play one of my flash files, it says I need a plugin. I have downloaded the plugin and installed it three times. Restarted the computer. Nothing works.

Go to Tools > Addons > Plugins. See if any Flash plugin is listed there and is enabled.

Before reinstalling, if needed, remove your existing Flash player, download the latest version and then install it.
