I suspect the problem occurs because you're not only
removing notes but also the "timestamps" messages from the
NBE files. If you're don't mind including open ports in your
reports, you could simply do a 'fgrep -v "Security Note"';
otherwise, the following awk script should do the trick:

  awk -F'|' '$1 == "timestamps" || ($1 == "results" && NF >
4 && $6 != "Security Note")' results.nbe > nonotes.nbe
