I'm using Opera as my browser on a Windows 8.1, 64-bit computer, and recently, when I try to watch online videos i.e. on BBC iPlayer, the video shows a message saying "Adobe Flash Player is out of date".

I have tried updating it, but still get the same message. I can watch those exact same videos using Google Chrome without a problem, so I am wondering if this is some sort of virus/ browser hijack? Or is it possibly that the version of Opera I'm using doesn't support Flash? (I'm using version 32.0

Open about:plugins and click details on top right portion. Check which version of flash player you have. Disable the older one if you have two.

You should pick up the latest version of flash Player from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html and install it manually. Things should be back to normal then.

It seems that this was some sort of virus- the message being shown on the videos stating that Flash was out of date was coming from something other than the browser- some sort of plugin or something that had been installed. I was able to remove this using Avira antivirus.
