CF} You can buy VMWare, install it, and create a linux VM and run Nessus from
CF} Windows via VMWare.� Again, dependning on this person's circumstances, this

CF} dedicated system or allow dual boot configurations, this may be a legitimate
CF} way for him to bypass those restrictions.� It is not a completely free
CF} solution, though.� You would have to buy VMWare and possibly have to upgrade
CF} memory/processor to get acceptable performance.� I believe that there are
CF} some open source OS emulators that are fairly similar to VMWare but I don't
CF} think they are up to the above mentioned task.� What is feasible really
CF} depends on the specifics of this person's circumstances are.
