To download

Visit the downloads page on Adobe. You need to have a Adobe ID and Password. If you don’t have, create one just by selecting the appropriate radio button to create a new account. After accepting the agreement (EULA), it will show the download page. Otherwise click here and go to the section
Flash Lite 2.1 Standalone Player for Symbian S60 V3.0. Click on the Download for Windows link. It is over 550KB. After downloading, install it using Nokia Phone manager or just transfer it to phone via bluetooth and install the application.

Please note that, this installation will not remove or update the previous flash player. It will remain there. So in your applications menu there will be two flash players. One called Flash Player and the new one as just Flash.

As FlashLite 2.1 supports flash player 7 contents, you can try all of your old flash games. And probably newer games will also run fine.
