This tells us the problem is not with nessus-fetch.

ok.

I don't understand the part "but the updated there isn't". Can you clarify?

I want to tell that the window of unregistered version of nessus isn't go away 
and that the command "nessus-update-plugins" seems not to work.

Running "nessus-update-plugins -vv" will show you what exactly is the script 
is doing. Do you notice it failing at
some point?
 
this is the output of the command:
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ test -n ''
+ tar=-xf
+ test -z y
+ tar=-xvf
+ '[' '!' -d /var/lib/nessus/plugins ']'
+ '[' -n /usr/bin/wget -a -n /bin/gzip ']'
++ pwd
+ cwd=/etc/nessus
+ tmpdir=
+ test -z ''
+ tmpdir=
+ test -z ''
+ tmpdir=/tmp
+ mkdir /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-6076
+ cd /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-6076
+ /usr/bin/wget -q -O - http://www.nessus.org/nasl/all-2.0.tar.gz.md5
+ test -s /var/lib/nessus/plugins/MD5
+ '[' -x /usr/bin/diff ']'
+ diff /var/lib/nessus/plugins/MD5 all-2.0.tar.gz.md5
+ cd /etc/nessus
+ rm -rf /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-6076
+ exit 0

By the way, what do the following commands report? nessusd -s | fgrep 
plugins_folder fgrep "prefix=" `which nessus-update-plugins`

The report is:

grep: fgrep: No such file or directory
grep: prefix=: No such file or directory
grep: which nessus-update-plugins: No such file or directory
