You don't need to install the tar.gz file.

Following the instructions from How do I install Adobe Flash player? (in a nutshell search and install flash from the Software Centre).

The easiest way is to install it from the software center. Though I think right now my chrome tells me I need a newer version to watch hulu but firefox doesn't...

to install from the tar.gz you need to untar it first, and follow whatever directions might be in a README or INSTALL file inside tar xzvf adobe_flash.tar.gz or whatever the file is called, then cd adobe_flash and follow the instructions. It's usually pretty annoying since you might need to put certain files in special places for each of your browsers... Like I said software center is the easiest.
