md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
The Flash plugin is NOT installed.

So I downloaded flash player directly from Adobe's website: 
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BONRN
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz

$ md5sum install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
93b7c48eaa492237b807a3ae1de65cf9  install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz

Unpacked and copied libflashplayer.so to ./mozilla/plugins on my home
directory. Flash now works in FF 2.0.0.11 and SeaMonkey 1.1.7.
