Since you're running ubuntu, gcc can be installed by
sudo apt-get install build-essentials

Will that include g++ because he wanted a c++ compiler as well? If it doesn’t he can just go: sudo apt-get install g++

Open up your terminal... become friends with the terminal, it's your best friend in Linux.

Why do you need a C compiler to install flash? As for iTunes, I find amaroK to be a pretty complete replacement, though obviously it doesn't have access to the Apple store.

As an aside, you can also install the packages through the Synaptic package manager. Most people just give the "sudo apt-get" answer, as it's easier to type out than describing how to do it through a GUI.
