This is not entirely correct. There are several ISS products that co-exist
very comfortably with Internet Scanner and some are even integrated in with it.
They are:
Proventia Desktop
Database Scanner
System Scanner
Later versions of Network Sensor
SiteProtector (Remote Console)
With Internet Scanner 7.0 SP2, there is integration with Proventia Desktop
whereas the Firewall and Intrusion Protection policies (thers as well) can
actually be controlled by Internet Scanner if the setting is utilized. This is
a use at your own risk situation as the policy chosen in order to allow most
scanning functions is quite relaxed to permit most scans and this should be
considered when looking at overall host system security that is manually
controlled by allowing exceptions to the firewall rather than essentially
bringing it down.
Database Scanner has always had a feature where it could be launched from
Internet Scanner (residing on the same machine) if database servers were
discovered during the scan.
System Scanner has for years peacefully co-existed with Internet Scanner and
for a long period of time was (and probably still is) encouraged as a way of
locking down (hardening) the scanning host.
Network Sensor has had daemon compatibility issues with Internet Scanner
before, but I *believe* the later versions synced up the daemon enough to avoid
the conflict.
As I mentioned before, the remote SiteProtector console is supported and
encouraged for useage as a way to control the Internet Scanner sensor managed
by SiteProtector especially if in a sensor only configuration where this would
be absolutely necessary if operating from the sensor itself for whatever reason.

You shouldn't have anything on the same computer as
the Scanner. No other ISS product should be on that
machine.
Cheese!
