Previously, if a timeout occurs in the 'ps' section during WMI query, the agent immediately stopped generation of data from all remaining sections. As result, the monitoring site reported a lots of missing and/or staling services.

Now, in the case of the timeout in the 'ps' section the Agent skips only this section.
