The latest 10.0.2 does work.

Be aware that the latest Flash Player will not install. The last version
of Flash that is Win2K compatible is 11.1.102.55.

Then I should be pretty safe to install FF 4.x or 5.x and still be able
to use Flash. I currently use FF 3.x and it does everything I need. It
just has the stupid bug that keep putting it in offline mode. I heard
that the latest versions are real bloated. I dont want or need that.
Same reason I stick with Win2k and Win98.

You can continue to use Flash Player version 11.1.102.55, but you
won't be able to upgrade it. This action does *not* depend on the
version of Firefox (I'm using FF version 10.0.2). When I tried to
install FP version 11.1.102.62 on Win2k it complained about entry
point "SetDllDirectoryW" missing from "kernel32.dll". This entry
point exists only in WinXP and later versions. An _increasing
number_ of programs can't be installed or upgraded (e.g.
applications from Google) due to some functions that were introduced
with WinXP and are missing from Win2k.

I should note that Adobe is still updating Flash 10.x, which is supposed
to officially support Win2K. That said, the installer for that version
is messed up, too.

There is a thread about it here:
