Add this line to the <options> section of your cc_config.xml:
<dont_use_vbox>1</dont_use_vbox>

"Read Config Files" from the BOINC client menue should be enough to activate it.
If not, wait until all currently running native Theory tasks are finished.
Then restart your BOINC client.

Be aware that from now on this client instance will not run any vbox task from any project.

Users may run other projects that require VirtualBox, e.g. Cosmology.
If <dont_use_vbox>1</dont_use_vbox> is active for a BOINC client instance it will not run tasks from Cosmology.

In this case you either live with the error message or setup an additional client instance without <dont_use_vbox>1</dont_use_vbox>.
