Hello!

Host ist Windows 8. Virtualbox runs Windows 7.
Host Antivirus is GData. Virtualbox has no Antivirus.

If you are using NAT networking then the host is doing all your internet traffic for you. If you are using bridged then it's possible that you are joined to a proxy web server. Your IT support people can answer questions about the latter.
