Virtual box critical Error

I wonder what cause this error, I just run VirtualBox after installation, I tried re-installing, repairing, upgrading version, downgrading version. But this error keeps coming up.

According to this article, this can be fixed like so:

  1. Open a standard command line ( Run > cmd )
  2. Run: cd C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox
  3. Run: VBoxSVC /ReRegServer
  4. Run: regsvr32 VBoxC.dll

But I find it confusing that this happens directly after installation. You may want to report this issue on the VirtualBox Bugtracker.

Thank you for your help, but I can't do step 3, and when i do step 4 it give me the following message "The module "VBoxC.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005" . And i don't know why but i can't access www.virtualbox.org any page from this domain. – Titan Zack Jul 28 '12 at 10:25
@TitanZack: Why can't you do step 3? – Oliver Salzburg♦ Jul 28 '12 at 12:40
I can't do that because cmd says VBoxSVC is not recognized as a command. By the way do you have any idea why i can't access www.virtualbox.org and any of it's subdomain? – Titan Zack Jul 28 '12 at 14:32
@TitanZack: Try VBoxSVC.exe. No idea about the connection problem. Site works fine here. – Oliver Salzburg♦ Jul 28 '12 at 14:52
I don't have that file. – Titan Zack Jul 29 '12 at 14:38
