I found a way to reproduce the problem. It only seems to happen when the
scan includes OS detection (-O or -A). I ran an Intense scan on a local
IP and clicked "Hosts Viewer". I got the error

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: c:\Python26\python.exe
This application has request the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.

It happens whether I run the installed py2exe-compiled version or if I
run the script directly with Python. If I run the script directly I also
get this output in the terminal:

**

It seems to be a bug in PyGTK. I'll see if I can solve it.
