I just tried downloading latest version of Firefox. I got this message "The operation canot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items."

  • Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
  • Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
  • Install the new version that you have downloaded.
