A recent message to the mailing list from Renaud seems relevant here: <http://msgs.securepoint.com/cgi-bin/get/nessus-0301/91/1.html>. In it he states that some plugins can not be disabled, although they just fill up the knowledge base without sending anything over the network; others might be enabled via any port scanners you enable. 90, though, does sound like alot. What are they? > These unwanted plugins are causing problems on > some machines. Do you know which ones are causing problems? Is the nessus log of any help here? How about an alternative approach? Simply run the bugbear.nasl script directly against your targets; ie, "nasl -t 192.168.1.0/24 bugbear.nasl". George -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
