Description
There is a record in the forms under Windows Hosts that explains this problem. http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=2380&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=
The original problem was reported by someone else and is very similar to my problem.
The first time I start VBox I do not experience this problem but after shutting down my guest and then restarting I have the problem.
I am running Win XP as a host and Win XP as a guest. I initially was on 1.5.0 but have just upgraded to 1.5.2 for both host and additions.
The second time I bring up the guest, VBoxService.exe in the guest goes to 100% or basically maxes out the guest and then the host. If I try to copy a file from the guest to the share, nothing ever happens. It looks like the paste of the file to the share works but I never get the progress dialog showing the copy and also the file is not copied.
To get VBoxService.exe to stop using high cpu I can either cancel it or open the Windows services dialog and then close the dialog.
