Tried browsing to 127.0.0.1 when asked for username/password tried the username/password for the Nessus user I setup. That didn't work. Tried the username/password for my workstation. That allowed me to get to http:\\127.0.0.1\localstart.asp
I then changed the username and password for the workstation and tried to connect again. Still get the same message. By the way I did check to see if my firewall was on, but it is turned off. I turned off my Spyware checking / virus checking software. I can see that nessusd.exe is running in my Windows Task Manager / Processes tab. What else can I check?
