I appreciate your comments on the progress bars. For the new Nessus
Client, we felt it was more important to display the realtime results of
a scan during scanning, than displaying an overall progress bar. We've
received a lot of positive comments on this feature.

In the new Nessus Client beta, the total count of plugins is not
displayed. I think this is a reasonable feature request. Externally, I
also like to point out the RSS feed for Nessus to monitor new plugin
availability at http://www.tenablesecurity.com/rss/

If users have other feedback on the new Nessus 3 client, please contact
Renaud or myself. Some of the feature requests we've received have made
it into the new releases. For example, this latest release can import
existing Nessus scans.
