I attempted an Install of BOINC 7.6.33 with VirtualBox 5.0.18 (Win-64)

After installing BOINC, it gets to the point where I OK Installing VirtualBox
It Downloads VirtualBox, and somewhere along the way, it just hangs, and I could wait forever...
At this point, my Internet Connections (Wired and Wireless) are Disabled, and it looks like the VirtualBox is my only hope to get to the Internet... If it ever finishes...
I cannot Uninstall VirtualBox (says previous Install must complete), and I cannot Uninstall BOINC (since it never finished anyways)

This is the SECOND time this has happened - After a few weeks, I tried again today, and of course, it hijacks my I.P. Addressses and I cannot do anything but Solitaire!

I need to Uninstall ANYTHING to do with this, and maybe next time, I will try without the VirtualBox - For now, I have TWO PCs I cannot BOINC with, so please, HAAAAALLLLP!
