Yes, you did not install the flash player (correctly) Until a very short while ago the best way to install the Adobe Flash Player was though the software installer of gOS, Synaptic, which can be easily found through the configuration menu's. However Adobe is commercial software, and they did not like the fact that their software was not installed through their website, so they made that impossible. Now the only way to install Flash is through the installer on their website, the good news is that it works, if you do it the right way, which is explained in the essential-tips-for- beginning-gos-3-users FAQ on the start page here.
