    Are you referring to OpenVAS? Have you tried openvas-stop, then openvas-start?

    Hallo Sean , Tell me something, you Run Kali on Virtual Machine or You Installed Direct to Disk ? And , Did You check Sources List ??? IF NOT fallow this steps :

    1. Open Root Terminal and write this ----> leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list and Hit ENTER
    2. Then they will Open You one File whit name Sources.list
    3. Remove existing config and put this following lines:

    ##Regular repositories
    deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib
    deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free

    ##Source repositories
    deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib
    deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free


    3.Save and close the file, and write in root konsole next :

    apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist upgrade -y and then do steps Before what I puted ... If that not fix the problem contact me again . Bye ^_^
