I notice that you have both versions of Firefox. That's OK, but you can only 
run one at a time. If you have a native Firefox process running and you try 
to open  linux-firefox, it just causes the original process to open a new 
window. I'm wondering if that's what's happened here.

What I have at the moment is native Firefox and linux-opera. I found that 
linux-firefox had unclear fonts - possibly they weren't properly 
anti-aliased. There were also some problems with linux-firefox not being able 
to browse to external applications. Opera is better under linux emulation, in 
my experience, and can use the flash-plugin.

These instructions are for the native Firefox, you don't need to do any of 
this for linux-firefox.

Re: flash plugin not working after port"upgraded"

Last time I upgraded that port, I found the location of the flash plugin had 
changed. I meant to email the maintainer to suggest an entry in UPDATING 
about it, but I don't think I got around to doing that.
Anyway, check that the plugin really exists where your libmap.conf says it is.
I found it had changed from /usr/local/lib to /usr/X11R6/lib so the flash 
section of my libmap.conf now looks like:

# Flash6 with Konqueror (temporary setting)
# old setting:- [/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
[/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so]
libpthread.so.0 pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libdl.so.2  pluginwrapper/flash6.so
libz.so.1   libz.so.2
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3libstdc++.so.4
libm.so.6   libm.so.3
libc.so.6   pluginwrapper/flash6.so

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
