Network problems with VM on XP sounds a bit unusual to me. It will install network drivers, graphics drivers (enables modes such as seamless), audio drivers and anything else it needs. I believe there is a way to insert the CD image under the devices tab (or one of the tabs at the top, I can't remember). But now that you said that, I think I'll get some guest additions for VirtualBox and see if I can solve my VM problems from there. Have you installed the VirtualBox Guest Additions in your VM? It should work fine then. I thought America Online is used to connect to the internet without networking hardware, but really it's not. I failed at using AOL to connect to the internet because it required me to be connected to a modem. Because after all, IE is EVILīack on topic, I do have SP3 in my Windows XP Home Edition VM in VirtualBox, but it still gives me notifications saying "You have 30 days left to activate", which I can't do because it requires internet connection, which I can't get in virtual machines. I'm sure Nathan Lineback from Toastytech has done that type of method. I'm sure you can remove Internet Explorer 6 from Windows XP.
