Hi,Firefox and Opera use two different plugin types. Firefox uses NPAPI plugin, which it seems you have installed. Opera uses the PPAPI plugin, which it seems you do not have installed.If you have Windows XP with Service Pack 3 installed, launch Opera and navigate to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download the installer.If you do not have Service Pack 3 installed, go to Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier and scroll down to 'Still having problems' and download Flash Player PPAPI for Opera and Chromium-based browsers.--Maria
