I just opened my web browser and ran "lsof" and these fonts are in use:
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSerif.ttf

(I use DejaVu fonts as my browser default)

I then opened the flash page from the original poster's message and
these additional fonts are listed:

/usr/share/fonts/corefonts/arial.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019004l.pfb
/usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019003l.pfb
