Well, after waiting awhile to see if others would respond

I have my own convoluted way of running current flash in MY MX and AntiX installs. I do not rely anymore on the flash updater in AntiX to do mine.
I mention what I did over here.

Maybe some else will give you a easier way than the way I do it.

You can try in root terminal with browsers closed.
update-flashplugin-nonfree --install

Or if that does not work; like rokytnji you can do it manually by downloading from here

Unpack the .tar.gz file (tar -xf adobe.-paxkacke.tar.gz)
Copy the lib to the update script location (cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/)
Link that to the Mozilla plugin dir (ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/)
Restart the browser and check under about:plugins if flash is correct
