We are having a similar problem, but in reverse. In some cases, Nessus will report that a patch is missing, but the patch has been superseded by another patch which HAS been applied. The same thing also sometimes occurs when a patch is rolled into a service pack. Rate of occurance: out of approximately 150 Windows 2000 and 2003 servers (mostly 2003), we have around 10-12 verified (via Shavlik and manual inspection) false-positives.

I am having an issue with Nessus not finding re released MSFT patches, such as MS06-040, where as shavlik does. It finds the other missing patches fine. How are the MSFT plugins generated and is there a provision to cover re-releases that have a different file version ? -- Zate
