Current Behavior

While editing the ARP scheduled scan cron expression I fat fingered the config and did not leave a space between the next *

The scanning and loading of the plugins is not robust and this was causing a crash loop where it just continuosly tried to load the plugins.

Should probably be a bit more robust and at least handle bad manually entered values better (maybe overwrite with a default and error message in the case of the cron schedule?)

Expected Behavior

Either stop me entering bad values (cron expressions in particular) or handle bad ones better, maybe by just raising a warning and reverting to the default.

At the very least, don't crash the entire plugin loading sequence and don't loop forever trying to reload a hard error that needs fixing manually.

Steps To Reproduce
