Please wait while Nessus is initializing

Nessus is neverendingly annoying.

  1. Takes way too long to install and “initialize”.
  2. Can’t open anything in a new tab.
  3. Can’t easily copy large lists of IPs (e.g. a vulnerability with a bunch of hosts). I want to copy them to verify, retest, exploit more, etc.
  4. Live results on? Your page will just flash and refresh while you’re trying to copy things/read stuff.
  5. You sent an http request to an https port
  6. There is a problem with your feed.

I’ve used Nessus regularly for a long time, but maybe I’m just not doing it correctly, lol.
