Take a look here. to open WMA files, try this to play and record most common multimedia formats, including MP3, DVD, Flash, Quicktime, WMA and WMV, including both standalone files and content embedded in web pages.

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

If you are using 64 bit ubuntu, try following the guide here : http://nxadm.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/install-64-bit-adobe-flash-player-on-ubuntu-904/

If not, have you tried installing the flash plugin from the terminal ? Try running this from the terminal (you need to enable Canonical Partner sources from synaptic > settings > repositories > other software > Canonical partners for this):

sudo apt-get update    
sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin

and also i would recommend uninstalling gnash in this case using

sudo apt-get remove gnash
sudo apt-get autoremove
