    Same here I had this problem when I was playing around with Virtual Box. I couldn't access the host shared files from the virtual PC. However I found something which might help.

    Did either of you notice that I posted a major update for it last week? It's v3.0 (but still in Beta). The 'final' should be available shortly. Access to the beta seems to have vanished from their site, but is available here:

    Sun couldn't let something as basic as drag/drop go unpatched (could they?)
