You should consider upgrading to 3.0.6 as that may help with some of the 
issues you're encountering.

One of the errors -- "internal_send->os_recv(4): Success" -- suggests 
that you have a highly-loaded CPU when the scan is running.

Another -- "getpts(): Cannot parse '^M'" -- suggests that a supplied 
port range included an invalid character.

Michel and I are asking whether no404 is *set* in the KB, not whether 
you've set it. no404 would indicate that the target web server doesn't 
return a 404 response when requesting a non-existent file. If that's the 
case, then Nessus doesn't bother running Nikto against a target.
