You can run macromedia's official flashplayer standalone binary via qemu.
Colours were messed up last time I checked, due to endianness issues (I

download the actual flash file and run it separately, though I know it's
possible to hack it so it embeds and works as a plugin.

My advice is to boycott sites that use technology that effectively excludes
you.
