Default Software/firewall question

Hi. I just had my firewall pop up asking to allow a "SoftwareUpdate apple software update" to access the internet on UDP port 53
I've heard that iTunes does a lot of spyware stuff, so am leary about allowing it through, and I don't run any Apple software, except for Quicktime.
The odd thing is that I looked up the IP it is attempting to access and WhoIs DNS lookup tells me that the IP belongs to my ISP....
Anyone know what's going on here? I don't know a whole lot about stuff like this, so anyone suggestions are appreciated =)
