I find an ethernet(bridge) issue on VirtualBox 3.2.4 r62467.
This is my environment setting.
A host machine(A) installed Ubuntu 10.04.
(A) has two ethernet card eth0 and eth1.

A guest os(B) installed windows xp on (A) .
(B) has an ethernet bridge to eth1 of (A).
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2495108/VirtualBox/%E7%B6%B2%E8%B7%AF%E5%8D%A1_004.png
And each time virtual machine(B) starts up,
A lot of multicast-cast packets will flood in eth1 of host machine(A).
And then I test a Virtual Machine without installed any os.
The same issue occurs.
This iptraf screen shot is before none os Virtual machine start up.

There just have some packets flow into host machine(A) eth1.
And after none os Virtual machine start up, a lot of multicast packets flood
in.

I searched this issue on google, but could not find any solution.
And I find there is a post about this issue in 2009-11-17, but no response.
