How can I get this scan to move on.
It is not doing anything for several hours.
Tried another scan this morning, with different IP addresses, it got 
stuck, similar to the one below, for three hours, nothing. So I killed it.
The list this morning contained about 20 IP addresses. The one it stuck 
on was towards the end of the list.

Then I tried again, but it is giving me the exact same behaviour, but 
with a different IP adress.
This new list only contains about 10 IP addresses.
Again the IP address it stuck on was towards the end of the list.

Is there an option I can enable so it sets a timeout for this, or kills 
these after a certain amount of time ?
