I'd check add and remove programs for anything that looks super odd. Then even uninstall Firefox. Then reboot. Then install Firefox fresh from web. I'd do the same with adobe products too. Sounds like removing opera may have removed a dll (dynamic link library file) to get adobe and other browsers to work correctly.
Could also try windows repair if you have the install disk -
Chrome has Flash baked in the browser. That's why it still works.
IE requires the Flash 'Active X' plugin. Firefox requires a different Flash plugin.
I would go to the Control Panel and Uninstall both Flash plugins;
then go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and re-install -
