VirtualBox on Vista Host with Comodo Firewall
VMware Server works just fine using Comodo to block all connections to the host operating system, but allows the VM access to the NIC. This provides maximum security for the Host OS and allows the Host to spawn a new VM if one is compromised... therefore pretty much eliminating costly downtime. Can someone fill me in on how I could do this with VirtualBox?

Without the networking setup you use in VMWare and the one you want to use with VB we can't help you.

I would think that you would not need the details as I would hope it would be pretty straightforward.
I want VirtualBox VMs to use my NIC to access the internet independent of the host OS's firewall configuration. (aka, block network traffic to host and allow guest full access) Can I do this with VirtualBox?
