Probably it's not the best solution (and it's easily revertable), but
you may try disabling Javascript in Firefox (or whatever browser your
user will use).
Another solution (but I don't think it will work) is to chmod
/opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so to -rwxr-x--- (0750) and then
change it's ownerships to root:video (or another group you may want to
create).
