Netstat scanner does not seem to work on windows systems

Subject: Netstat scanner does not seem to work on windows systems

Hello
I begin to use intensively credentials to check machines.
Recently, in order to reduce the network stress / false alerts caused by 
the network scan,
I checked out the "nessus TCP scanner" and checked in the "Netstat scanner"

I noticed that the netstat scanner does not appear in the report, and 
that, apparently,
only defaults ports were scanned, as if no scan took place.

The credentials are OK and the account used has "local admin" rights on 
the target :
I get a correct list for missing patches and the report tells me that 
"it was possible to log on the server"

Client : NessusClient 1 for Debian
Server : Nessus 3.0.5 on a Suse server
Target : W2k3

Apparently, it works well on Solaris targets : netstat shows up in the 
scanner list, and I did not
notice any missing ports.

Any idea of further testings...

Cordialement / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards, 

Patrice ARNAL
