I am running on a Mac G4, with OSX 10.3.9 and for some reason I can't get software updates. the things it wants to install get red "!" next to them and a message pops up that says

"Make sure you have permission to write to /private/tmp/501/TemporaryItems/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate, then try again."

I checked everything and I guess I can, I haven't changed anything, so what is up with it?
