Works for me.

If you run "update-flashplugin-nonfree --install" again, does it work now?

Otherwise:

If you paste the URL: 
<http://people.debian.org/~bartm/flashplugin-nonfree/fp10.sha512.amd64.pgp.asc> 
into a web-browser, do you see the (rahter short) file [0] containing a 
hash-key?

If that worked:

If you try fetching it with wget:
"wget 
http://people.debian.org/~bartm/flashplugin-nonfree/fp10.sha512.amd64.pgp.asc";
does it produce an error message?

You can add -v to the command lines for both undate-flasplugin-nofree 
and wget to get verbose output that you can paste here, if you want to.
