How does Konqueror detect flash versions?

[David Goodenough <david.goodenough@btconnect.com>]

I am having endless problems running flash (in particular BBC IPlayer).
I have the normal flashplayer-plugin installed from sid (from a few weeks
ago) and as I recall that installed flash player 10 (.? I do not remember).

The IPlayer page I hit this morning gave some more information, it said:-

This content requires Flash Player version 9 (installed version: 7.0.25)

which made me think that perhaps I have an old version installed 
somewhere, and it is finding the wrong one.  Any idea how I might track
down the 7.0.25 that it is finding so that I can terminate it with 
extreme prejudice.  

This is machine that I have been running for some years, and it might
have picked up manner of cruft over the years.
