I have downgraded the flash-plugin now to version 10.3.183 from rpmforge repo. It works fine now :)
I've also added exclude=flash-plugin to the end of /etc/yum.conf file, to make sure this does not get upgraded again.
That's a bad idea. Unpatched critical vulnerabilities in Flash (along with Java) is one of the most likely routes of infection of your machine and not updating it is asking for trouble.
In general yes, but afaik flash player 10.3 is still actively patched and supported by Adobe.
