Hi,
I have been using VirtualBox from some months ago and now I need to do one thing:
Is it possible to run and let running the Guest without visible window (just like a service, as vmware server does)?
Thanks

You can check VBoxHeadless. There are other front-ends that can do the same thing. However, this does require you to connect to the VM 'remotely', as there won't be a window visible (maybe a command window). See the sticky at the top of this forum for more information.

Then it would run as the System account (or a different account that can be used for services). There is a discussion here about that too, you have to search to find it (might be a bit more down the list, I'm sure it's discussed in this part).
