Windows patch checking Plugins are showing false positives with latest

Subject: Windows patch checking Plugins are showing false positives with latest plugin updates
Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2004 14:57:07 -0700
All of my scanners are now showing in excess of 32 false positives when
checking for missing WIndows patches. I rolled back the plugins to those
downloaded on August 19th and everything is fine, but the plugins downloaded
since Monday night at 3:00am PDT are creating all these false positives.

I am running version 2.0.12 on Redhat version 3 and Suse 9.1. 

An example of some of the plugin IDs that are now showing false positives
are:
10433
10482
10485
10486
10499
10504.... and so it continues..

My SMB logins are OK etc 

Is anybody else experiencing this? Any ideas what has happened?
