Hi,


I did not see the parameters of the test, so the following is my

I guess Mandy did not give any NT credential to Nessus (as done in the
'Prefs.' section of the panel) while the others scanners (ISS, Retina)
were given those (through the fact that she was logged as administrator
in NT). As a result, Nessus could not dig into the remote registry to
determine wether the hotfixes were applied or not.

I don't understand those either.
