If got that file ("libflashplayer.so", pure 64-bits) installed in my 
system (it's about 9.1 MiB and *is vulnerable* to some recently 
discovered flaws which were not corrected for version "10.0.45.2"). 

Anyway, I can send it to you by e-mail, but I hope you understand the 
risks involved in using this plugin.

To install Adobe "Flash-crap-Player" 32 bits plugin on a 64 bits system -
now that there is no 64-bits version available at Adobe site-, you can 
install "nspluginwrapper" that will pull and install the required 32-bits 
compat libraries.
