I cannot upload latest version of Firefox onto my Mac every time I try it says operation cannot be completed because i do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items . I get as far as draging icon into Applications then this message crops up every time. Computer is running on latest updates elsewhere on Mac OS X 10.5.8

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
- Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
- Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
