nasl_no_signature_check=yes was set.
I had restarted openvassd numerous times, as well as telling openvasmd to 
rebuild the database.  When I checked the list of NVTs from GSAD, they weren't 
listed, but the scanner log was showing them as being loaded without errors.

In any case, I fixed the problem by completely removing anything to do with 
OpenVAS from the computer then re-installing OpenVAS from source.  It works 
fine now.
