Yes you are right ... your firefox has the old flash player.

Look in the directory $HOME/.mozilla/plugins/ and check if there is
any libflashplayer.so/flashplayer.xpt file in there. If so, just
delete those files and see if restarting firefox brings you the
flashplayer actually installed through ubuntu ... which should be
flash 9 if you are on feisty or gutsy.
