This is how I managed to install it without administrator permissions:

1. Download the XPI archive of the Flash Player Plugin to your hard disk (right click on the download link then "Save link as.."). XPI archives are only ZIP files containing the files used by the plugins.
2. So you can safely rename the file you just downloaded, called flashplayer-win.xpi, into flashplayer-win.zip (you are changing its extension from .xpi to .zip)
3. Extract the files in the archive. You can use any program capable of opening .zip files (WinZip, WinRAR or the free and great 7-zip). There are also websites which can uncompress archives: wobzip.org.
4. Copy the files flashplayer.xpt and NPSWF32.dll to %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Plugins\
* %APPDATA% is the folder which holds your applications profiles and settings.
* You can open this folder simply choosing "Start ? Run ? Type in %APPDATA% ? OK".
* In case you don't have a Plugins folder you can create one and place your files there.
5. Restart Firefox
6. Enjoy your flash websites!
Just found this excellent tip somewhere, and wanted to share it.
Lots of people at work or school not being able to update those flashplayers because of the lazy admins holding you down: Here, you can do it yourself now.
