I have also asked in the forum a couple of times (http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=43727) but nobody has replied. Here a screen shot showing the virtual box port forwarding configuration, the web server working inside the virtual box, the exception rule on the firewall for the port 8888 and the failed request from the host to the client. http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/9462/portforwarding.png " defect closed network/NAT VirtualBox 4.1.0 invalid Windows Windows
