These are 'normal' for 10.5.1 at this stage. Just live with them. Nothing to worry.
Here's Apple's info on that:

Basically: good news--those messages in Repair Permissions are harmless, and happened prior to this update. (But I expect a future update will get rid of those messages.)
It was not Symantec

Doesn't show up in Windows update, better download it manually then.
Good news that the flaw is fixed!

No problems so far with my MB Core Duo (Leopard10.5.1), apart from (possibly related) an HD vodcast i was trying out crashed iTunes, but after restarting it (iTunes, not the MB) it worked fine.
Still can't repair permissions, but i never bother with that anyway!

On the GB update I was hoping for improved quality with the transform voice function, but unfortunately it's still crappo. A friend and I have been worklng on a podcast and we tried transforming his voice male to female but the end result is a voice with a constant "warble" sound (like the person is speaking under water) mixed into it... it's really bad and there seems no way to get rid of it. We have tried several different mics and configurations but even using our Zoom H2 produces exactly the same result.
Kernel Panic about 3 minutes after update...coincidence? Haven't had one of those in about a year and a half.
Well I downloaded it, installed it - rebooted and no problems.
Have you got a relatively clean system or have you changed/tweaked/etc your system since the clean install of Leopard?
Completely messed up my iMac
After installing the update my iMac (20" white Core2Duo) hung forever trying to reboot. After half an hour or so with no progress I reset the machine, only to end up after booting in the configuration setup. I re-entered my info (network, name, etc), after which the screen turned blue, and back to the config screen again! I've now re-installed Leopard, and am restoring from my Time Machine backup, a process that takes up about 4 hours. Now I know why it's called Time Machine... As for what went wrong: I don't have a clue. My Leopard install was about a week and a half old...

iPhoto Freeze
After applying the update, I had a couple problems with iPhoto. First, while scrolling through my library, the heads-up date got stuck on the screen. Oddly enough, it would update as a I scrolled, but even when I would switch into Events view, it would stay on the screen, doubling up with the HUD that comes up in events view when scrolling. Only a restart of iPhoto would get rid of it.
Then after the restart, I finished creating and ordering a photobook, went back into my photo library, then tried to quit iPhoto, and it hung. Had to Force Quit.
These are the first iPhoto '08 problems like this I've had. 2.4GHz Alum iMac, OS X 10.5.1, no 3rd party mods. I'm concerned it was something in the update as well.

No problems here; the update went smoothly.
But reading all the problem reports I wonder if this update conflicts with some third party software ya'll may be running. I usually dismiss one person having issues as a possible case of system corruption or other brokenness, but when I see this many reports I start to wonder.
Remember to file all problems with support.apple.com; they need to hear about these issues in order to be able to fix them.

Perhaps it had something to do with the Photobook creation. My library consists of about 3,500 pictures, and I don't know if that would have an effect.

I don't know what the common thread is, but my problems began just the same way as others described. Freezing, cannot repair permissions, must hold power button to reboot. Unfortunately I was never able to reboot. Tried everything all night. Now I'm heading to the Genius Bar. On my day off

Be sure to post what they did with it. Sucks that you can't get it to work.
You do know there are ZERO (0, none, nada) confirmed viruses for Mac OS X? That virus check is probably a thing that's causing the conflict.

You have to click on the specific partition that contain the OS. (Left pane of the disk utilities).
For example if you select 149gb Fujitu, the option is not there.
But if you click on Your-HD-Name (such as Macintosh HD), then the repair permission will be available.
Don't bother verifying permissions. Just repair it.

Ah that repair permission suggestion.... (looks like corrupted file system in his case, not related to file permissions and the installer runs with root permission so file permission will not be an issue in general)
Anyway if folks have problems after the update it is wise to take a look at the install log to see if the installer failed in some fashion (note some errors/warnings are benign).
/var/log/install.log (open using Console.app)
I have seen the HUD problem a few times well before the QuickTime update.
Catastrophic HDD failure. I lost everything. The Genius Bar said it would be about a week to fix.
Let's hope my Time Machine backup works.

I don't suppose the QT update could've done that. Sucks that this happened to you though, but I think your problem was mainly hardware related to begin with. Time Machine rules though. Good thing you have the backup.
I really don't mean to hijack this thread, but I have serious problems with my Mac. I tried the First Aid "Verify Disk" (Leopard DVD) and it fails. This is the error:
Volume Check Failed
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed
Time Machine can do a full restore, boot Leopard DVD, with TM drive on line, erase the internal HD and then retsore a Full TM backup from latest that worked fine. I already did this on a 300 GIG drive on a Dual G5 and it worked but it is SLOW. So go out for the day shopping
