Thank you.

If Nessus will not flag these, the natural follow up question would be - which 
version of Nessus would be best for flagging the NT flaws that the latest 
version will not?

Perhaps my question is irrelevant and the version does not matter - is it 
purely to do with the fact that the latest list of Nessus plugins no longer 
identifies flaws in NT4?
