OK - I've had a go at this, or to exact, a couple of gos: here's the output:

The information I've added to the code you provided came from the output for "about plugins" as entered in Firefox. I've copied and pasted the relevant part:
Shockwave Flash
File name: libflashplayer.so
Shockwave Flash 7.0 r68
MIME Type Description Suffixes Enabled
application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf Yes
application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl Yes
This does confirm that Flash 7.0 is present, but obviously I'm not extracting the correct information to remove it. Maybe you can put me right on this.
Many thanks for your attention.
