In this case cupsd continues to peg CPU utilization well after the scan
completes.  When I first discovered it, cupsd was still hanged somewhere
around 14 hours after the scan completed.  Also, if I stop the scan manually
after cupsd hangs, it stays hanged until I restart it.

I have found that the iis_decode_bug.nasl ('Plugins/CGI abuses/IIS 
Remote Command Execution') is hanging cupsd on Fedora Core 3.

I had some problems with Cups, but IIRC, they were only temporary.
i.e. during a scan, cups ate all available CPU, but when the scan was over,
it calmed down.
