  Thanks for your response!
   
  Because of security reasons, I don?t use Wifi. But I use a DSL-Service from 
the German Telekom, like millions others do. 
   
  And I had no problem with it, when I tested Nessus a couple of months ago.
   
  I thought the problem could be about Winpcap. But I had no problem with 
Windump.
   
  Does Nessus require some specific WinXP-Services to be running?
   
  What is the "HNAdapter" really doing? How does Nessus use it? Where should I 
start looking for the problem?
   
  Also interesting: When I try to scan, Nessus actually finds the correct 
IP-Address of the target. But immediately afterwards, it stops and prints the 
report "Tenable Nessus Security Report -> No Vulnerability Found"

Are you scanning over ethernet / wifi as opposed to a VPN / PPTP connection?
