It can be done. 

I've written my own plugin to handle this chore.

Hit me off list and I will be happy to send it over to you.

Subject: how to detect the currently logged in Windows user?


Hi there

Nessus-3.2.1 doesn't appear to log the domain\username account details 
on remote Windows machines. I don't know about anyone else, but we'd 
love to know that - so that we can track machines back to owners.

Can it be done? I've had a go with some WMI scripts - but no luck so far
:-(

Thanks!
