I got my Security Update 2004-05-24 via the Software Update Service, installed it, it said it completed the installation, but it doesn't show up in the Installed Updates pane.

Did this happen to anyone else?

G5, 1.6, 10.3.3
 
It shows in mine.

Type this in the terminal:
ls /Library/Receipts/ | grep 2004-05-24

You should get a response like:
SecUpd2004-05-24Pan.pkg

If not, then you didn't get a receipt for the tupdate, which could potentially cause problems with Repair/Verify Permissions, since it's these .pkg receipts that set permissions.
 
Thanks! I got the update. The command line gave me the response!

Good it must just be some kind of kink in SoftwareUpdate.

If you didn't have the package but did install it then we'd have a little problem.

Out of curiosity, type the following in the terminal (the response should be "Your software is up to date.")

sudo softwareupdate -l

(that's an -L for "list")

EDIT: sorry, it will probably show updates you've ignored in the past, but it shouldn't show the latest security update...)
 
The firts time I got some biazrre statement that for some reason didn't copy. Now I get this:
