I'm glad somebody mentioned this! I'm hosting a guest Scientific Linux 
4.4 system in a Fedora Core 6 system and the VirtualBox process is 
consistently using around 95-99% CPU (from the top program) even when 
the guest is just sitting at the GUI login screen. I've tried 
uninstalling and re-installing but it makes no difference. Curiously,
it doesn't seem to affect any aspects of using the Fedora system 
(apart from the CPU fan working overtime!). This can't be normal can 
it? I'm running 1.3.6.
