Sonny,
Sorry to hear about this. Older versions of this plugin (pre 1.11) are
supposed to be safe but in some corner cases, as Omen Wild reported,
it could take down svchost.exe. We immediately worked with Omen about
this and believe that version 1.11, which was pushed in the feed
yesterday, fixes the problem for good (we're waiting for his latest
tests though).
Could you make sure that you're running version 1.11 of the plugin?
I'd advise you to go as far as doing a nessusd -R on your scanners to
make sure that you're running the very latest version.
Thanks,
-- Renaud
