Norton internet security and XP security centre

RE: Dimension 8400 windows xp.
Having successfully uninstalled and re-installed Norton internet security 2004( to correct an internal programme error), I notice that XP security centre does not appear to pick-up / recognise that the software is installed and running ok.
 
Norton Internet Security appears to be running ok when accessed outside XP's security centre.
 
Any ideas about how to correct this anomaly!!

    You might need to run the Norton Live Update. Sometime when you reinstall programs such as Norton, you have to run updates to get the lastest definitions. You may have to reboot if there are new updates installed. Hope this solves your problem.

    Security center came out after NIS2004, so that version of NIS wasn't initially recognized by the MS Security Center.  Symantec came out with an update to fix that which arrives via Live Update.  You can manually run Live Update, which should resolve this (may need to manually run it a couple times until it says no more updates available, rebooting after those updates that say they require it, since some updates cannot be delivered until others are already installed).
