Ron,

Would you mind sending the output of a scan with -d3?

Thanks,
Joao

Hmm, that didn't fix it for me, although it did change the error. I now get:

./nselib/http.lua:164: Didn't find CRLF after chunk-size [ chunk-extension ]
at position 2; got "OF\
".
stack traceback:

Sorry for not looking into this myself. :)

Hi Ron,

The problem happens because the request made was a HEAD request, where
no body exists. The following patch fixed the problem for me. Thanks!

Hope that helps!

I think I found another one, too, but I'm having trouble reproducing it.
Will get back to you on that one.
