You do have the Shockwave Flash 11.0 r1 plugin, so Flash should be working.
You can test that here:


That leaves option that you are blocking JavaScript.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
