You have OSX 10.5.8, and your flash player is outdated. Your Mac is too old for the newest Flash player.

As stated, your Flash plugin is outdated. And Adobe is never going to update it for PowerPC Macs.

Your G5 is a PowerPC Mac obviously.

The best you can do is install a "modified" plugin that tricks sites into thinking you have the latest version of Flash when you don't

Download this and install it here: Macintosh HD>Libary>Internet Plugins. Be sure to move the old plugin somewhere safe first.

Note that the internet Flash era has passed PowerPC by. This means that even with this modified plugin your viewing/listening experience probably won't be the best.
