download in zip format

Post by plerner »

I am using Win XP at work and I want to install Virtualbox. But I can't install the standard download since I don't have administrative privileges. Is there a zip version of the latest release somewhere?

A zipped version would not help very much, because you need administrative privileges to install the VirtualBox system modules.
