Why does Flash no longer work?

About a month ago Flash no longer worked in any browser I use. YouTube, games, animation, absolutely everything that's a SWF will not load.

I've tried updating but that doesn't seem to work. It's not my ad blocker. The fact that the problem is in multiple browsers eliminates that.

Using OS X Snow Leopard, if that helps.

    Try running Flash videos another (admin) user account - create one if necessary.

    If it works under that account, you NEED to repair permissions, either with Disk Utility or AppleJack

    If it DOESN'T work under the other account, you've got problems outside of Flash Player

    This may seem like a silly question, but you aren't running any antivirus software, are you?
