ISS Internet Scanner Brute Force Bug

The Internet Scanner lets you brute force by using username/password
pairs specified in the file default.login. I specified a known
username/password pair but the scanner could not login.
The reason is that the Internet Scanner needs a carriage return after
the last username/password pair. If it finds just an EOF marker then the
password gets modified by adding an additional character.
For example the password test is modified to testo.
