I've fixed the images upload directory. It's not really an appropriate 
place for hosting any binaries. Please don't put it on the wiki.

Read the terms regarding Adobe Flash Player redistribution:
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/

You may not redistribute via the web:
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/faq/#item-1-5

You may not modify the installer:
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/faq/#item-1-11

Right now, the only legal way to distribute Flash for Linux is either 
getting it from Adobe's website or Warren Togami's RPM:
http://macromedia.mplug.org/

He got a special dispensation from Adobe (then Macromedia) to package 
Flash. They will not allow him to distribute a packaged version 9 until 
it is out of beta.
