I suggest: start up the guest in safe mode and uninstall the v4 beta guest additions. Then install the 3.x GAs.

Guest additions are useful for a number of features such as: mouse integration, better graphics performance and more flexible display size, and also VirtualBox shared folders. The GAs are optional, but they do exist for a reason.
