Windows XP SP2 Security Center

[Jacob]

I would have guessed that a program like Microsoft
AntiSpyware would add itself to the Security Center in
Controlpanel, along with firewall, antivirus and Internet
options. It doesn't. Any comments on this from MS?

Jacob;
Microsoft Anti Spyware is Beta and should not be a part of the Security
Center for at least that reason.
Microsoft has not stated whether the Security Center will be changed in the
future to recognize anti spyware of some kind.

Also, nothing can add itself to the Security Center.
Changes need to be made to the Security Center before any anti spyware
program can be recognized.
After that, the anti spyware maker needs to make the appropriate changes to
be recognized.

Hopefully Microsoft will make those changes to the Security Center, but I do
not expect to see it until the next Service Pack.
