This is very unlikely a bug of Rekonq. It is likely a bug in the Flash 
plugin or in QtWebKit.

Any chance you could try with WebKit trunk? Here are the information to 
build WebKit: http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnLinux

If you can reproduce the bug with WebKit trunk, you can create a bug 
report on bugs.webkit.org. If you do, please send the bug number on this 
mailing list so we can have a look immediately.

cheers,
