I am new to BackTrack and my version is 5 R3 GNOME 32bits.
And maybe this is a super dump question...
When it was said that my Adobe Flash Player could not support the Nessus, I tried to follow the instruction provided online but it seemed not to work for my computer.
My browser was Firefox 14.0.1.
I used to attempt to download the tar.gz file and i did the following steps:
1. I downloaded the file.
2. I copied the libflashplayer.so to /opt/firefox
3. I put the rest of configuration files to the corresponding folders
4. I opened the browser
5. Nothing changed.
6. Help!
7. Wiki in BT5 didn't work either

You must have done something wrong, when I did it worked fine.
And did you configured NoScript properly?
Try redoing it.

you are posting a help question in the tutorial section. WTF is wrong with you?
go read the rules and stickies. when you understand them go post an introduction in the introduction board.
when you have done that learn to use the search function on the forum and try to learn in what board you should post in

FYI, they released Kali Linux, the BackTrack Reboot, but back to the problem:
I use Ice Weasel, which is basically firefox and pulls from the firefox config. I redid the steps you listed and rebooted, worked fine for me. I did it on a 64 bit system, but I don't see why this would make a difference.

Well maybe it is about the path? I could not find the path containing firefox plugins
-
How about just using a package manager instead of doing it like this.
Stop staring blind on the term "backtrack" learn some basic linux.
Its just another distro.

Ehhh, it is but it isn't...like on my debian machine iceweasel gives me tons of probs lol. Then again, thats debian stable and its almost always dated on web browsers so i could be wrong ;)
@@ OP
You said you downloaded the tar.gz file then copied it? Did you remember to unpack it first? tar -zxvf filenamehere i believe would be the command.
Just a quick recap for any system (just did this on slack):
Go to site and download the tarbell, unpack the tarbell (tarbell is the right word isnt it? the tar.gz extension?), then copy it/move it to the proper location for that system, open browser and shit brick.
Also, is this a dedicated install or is it a liveUSB? If it's a liveUSB, was it made persistant or not?
