Discuss the 5.1.28 release

@Selin
I cannot reproduce the problem. Can you reproduce it without phpVirtualBox, just with a plain vanilla VirtualBox?

For anyone who might be experiencing the same problem as I was, USB mouse stopped working in host and virtual, I found an identical instance of the problem in a previous version of VB. Here is a link to the post. The solution was very simple. Just unclick the USB mouse under Devices in the virtual. This may need to be done each time a virtual is booted but not sure about that.

I use a Windows 7 64 bit host to run VirtualBox 5.1.28.
I'm running 32 bit Windows 7 in a VM.
I noticed this evening that Network "Bridged Adapter" isn't working right, I can't download anything from inside the VM though ping seems to work fine.
Possibly it's since installing the WIndows updates today.
I've changed to "NAT" for now.

I've fixed it by updating the driver for the network card on the host PC.
I must have previously updated it to a buggy version.

No, apparently that's not the explanation.
Something bizarre is going on.
I have absolutely no idea what I did that suddenly made it start working.
In fact now I have upgraded to 5.1.30 and fiddled around uninstalling stuff, reinstalling stuff but it just won't work in bridged mode so as before I'm reverting to NAT.
