Hi Dan,

Nessus 3.2 Windows did have an issue working with multiple NICs in some
cases. Nessus 3.2.1 fixed this, however, a crash of scan.exe was not part
of that previous issue. Targets would simply not be identified. Most Windows
users weren't impacted by that issue, even if they have more than one NIC.

Can you send us a more exact system configuration with NICs and IP
addressing?
