I have the same problem when scanning with the version 6 product and specifying an address range that excludes broadcast addresses. This is not a problem when using the version 5 product. Scanner 6 usually (95% of the time) hangs on the 22nd address in the list. CPU usage on Scanner drops to zero and System Idle Process pegs at 99%. The only recovery is to Kill Scanner 6 with the Task Manager.

The problem occurs when we use a host file to address the hosts to be scanned and when some of those addresses are not reachable during the scan. The scanner just stops working what you can see because there is no more access to any of the tmp-files in the tmp-dir. This doesn�t happen with every target network. But with some target networks this happens again and again. It doesn�t matter, how many hosts are addressed in the file. It can be several hundred as well as just a few. We did also change the scanning host but this didn�t help. Did anybody else see this strange behaviour? Any ideas to solve this are appreciated. - Norbert Huette
