It's possible that you might find some more information in the help system
or on Apple's website. It's really not a big deal. Many people recommend
doing this every couple of months and before and after installing software
that requires you to enter your password.

Wow, I'm lost on what this is. Can you tell me where I can learn more

Folks, especially those new to the Mac, don't forget to verify and
repair disk permissions before and after updating to 10.4.4. You won't
have to reboot after the first verification and repair but you'll have
to reboot after updating. Don't forget: it's not enough to just repair
permissions, you have to verify and then repair. I personally noticed
VoiceOver running more smoothly after the process.
