The problem here is not you nor Firefox/flash, but moronic web
programmers who test whether you have exactly version 8, and if not they
show you a hardcoded "upgrade!" message. These idiots forgot to take
into account that you might have 9 or higher. Probably they coded the
page a few years ago and never got around to updating their braindead
version test.  I have come across such sites several times.
