You can show them your Software Update log file. Access it through the Software Update Preference pane (Click "Installed Updates" and "Open As Log")
Or just send them the file located in /Library/Logs/"Software Update.log"
BTW, One issue we found with Harris Stat is that it expects all released updates to have been installed.
Unfortunately, if you miss a Security Update and install say the 10.4.6 update which includes the fixes from that Security Update, Harris will still report that the Security Update has not been applied.
The only way we found around this was to download the stand alone missing Security Update apply it and then re-apply the Combo 10.4.6 updater, to make sure that files had not been replaced by older versions.

Does anyone know of a way to print a report of what updates I've installed on my Mac? My IM folks have been unsuccessful scanning my machine with a program called Harris Stat to ensure I've applied the most recent security update, and they won't take my word for it. So is there any way to print a report from my Mac that will show which updates I've applied?
