Flash is available from the Debian "contrib" section - it will download
the plugin from Adobe and install it.

Edit:

  /etc/apt/sources.list

and enable the contrib section:

If you have something like:

  deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

You need to change this to:

  deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib

Note that the only change you are making is to add the ' contrib' to
the end of the existing line. Then save the file and run:

  apt-get update; apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
