Hi,

There's a nasty bug in the client which makes it dump core if you select
all the plugins (if you downloaded the new plugins with
nessus-update-plugins).

The problem is due to a very old implementation of the way the client
sends data to the server, due to a time I did not thought Nessus would
have more than 100 plugins (let alone 700 ;)

If you select all the plugins, then the client will crash :/

I'll release Nessus 1.0.9 this weekend, which solves this issue
(and some other nits).

Sorry for the inconvenience,
