To expand on Jay's earlier posting, you could perform your scan with the
unix-based nessus client, save the results in NBE format, and then pull
out only results for MS04-038 (tested for by plugin #10861) using the
following AWK one-liner:

  awk -F'|' '$1 == "timestamps" || ($1 == "results" && $5 == "10861")' results.nbe > ms04-038.nbe

If desired, you can then convert that to some other format; eg,

  nessus -i ms04-038.nbe -o ms04-038.xml
