The best I can recommend is running Linux in a VMWare environment on your machine with Nessus server running in it, then run the graphical client on Windows.
Or, just run Nessus3 (current is version 3.0.3) for Windows...both the client and server reside on the same machine. Download @ http://www.nessus.org/download/
Also for ISS Internet Security Scanner very good for UNIX systems Nessus best for Linux systems.
Nessus3 does very good job with Linux and other *nixes...I am, however, a bit biased ;-)
