Thanks for your help. It was just that I needed to apt-get install as root, not sudo apt-get.
The following command # apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree worked just fine. $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree failed because the invoked script probably did not have the write permission for a certain directory. This is a little bit confusing for a newbie like me. But, anyway, I can now see the videos on youtube. I appreciate the help by everyone.
