it works!

that commit was an attempt to provide a less hacky implementation of this fucntionality, unfortunately I had not tested it until this morning, it doesn't work.

I have a working solution, will clean it up a bit and push it up.

hmm, looks like my hack wasn't working as well as I had hoped. Somewhere along the way the page I wanted it to scan got lost somewhere, the actual scan results were not good.

@irwink has sent me a major refactored version of WPSS that I am reviewing now. I'll let you know how this works out.

I have a fix for this. I first need to re-fork and then put 6.8.1 in place
