Unfortunately, there isn't a 64 bit Flash plugin to work with your 64
bit Firefox. I run 32 bit Firefox (in a chroot jail along with 32 bit
Java plugin) in my 64 bit system because of this. I would love to find
a way around this, if anyone knows of a way. I set this up a year ago
hoping that when 64 bit Windows came out, Flash would eventually catch
up. -Eric Jahn
