HOW TO INSTALL FLASH PLAYER ON UBUNTU
Go to a webpage that has Flash content
For example
http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/
In the top right hand corner you will be prompted to install the Flash plugin.
Click on that and there will be several options. Select the Adobe option then enter your password and the installer will take care of the rest.
Once Flash is installed restart Firefox and thats it.

The use of the Terminal in most cases is not needed as Ubuntu has the Synaptic Package Manager which allows you to easily install and remove software
Here is the Official Ubuntu Synaptic Package Manager Documentation

To install individually downloaded deb. files then Ubuntu has the GDebi Package Installer (already built in to Ubuntu) which automatically starts up when you try to open a deb.file
