Curious, which flash plug in are you using? As for the scrolling, try adding
-- Option "AccelMethod" "exa" Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" -- to the device section of your xorg.conf and see if it helps. Another fix that really sped up firefox for me was adding -- export MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 -- to my .bashrc file supposedly it messes with the text rendering for international fonts/glyphs but for the speed increase I think it's worth it. Also, the only languages I know use Latin glyphs.
