VirtualBox:is it alright to say no when it asks you to insta

I'm wondering if it's ok to click no when it asks you to install the "Host-Only Ethernet Adapter" because it causes me problems and I'm gonna reinstall virtualbox so I can click no when it asks me to install that adapter.
Is it ok to do that?

If you do not need it then the better way is to un-select it during the install process.

Okay I tried unselecting it, but it said that I had to install in order to install the whole virtualbox application.
I hate that Host-Only Networking Adapter
Is there any work around?

sorry for the triple post but by unselect do you mean click on the hard drive icon next to virtualbox networking and click entire feature unavailable?

I mean that when you install if you take your time and open the install selections you can select to not install.
If it is already installed all you need to do is go to the main manager and select preferences and delete the host-only adapter from the network .
