https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog
VirtualBox 5.0.20 (released 2016-04-28)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
* Storage: fixed a regression causing write requests from the BIOS to cause a Guru Meditation with the LsiLogic SCSI controller (5.0.18 regression; bug #15317)
* Storage: several emulation fixes in the BusLogic SCSI controller emulation
* NAT Network: support TCP in DNS proxy (same problem as in bug #14736 for NAT)
* NAT: rework handling of port-forwarding rules (bug #13570)
* NAT: rewrite host resolver to handle more query types and make it asynchronous so that a stalled lookup doesn't block all NAT traffic
* Snapshots: don't crash when restoring a snapshot which has more network adapters than the current state (ie when the snapshot uses ICH9 and the current state uses PIIX3)
* Guest Control: various bugfixes for the copyfrom and copyto commands / API (bug #14336)
* VBoxManage: list processor features on list hostinfo (bug #15334)
* Linux hosts: fix for Linux 4.5 if CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT is enabled (bug #15327)
* Windows hosts: another fix for recent Windows 10 insider builds (bug #15337)
* Windows hosts: make it work on Windows XP again (5.0.18 regression)
* Windows Additions: fixed performance issues with PowerPoint 2010 and the WDDM graphics drivers if Aero is disabled

3.1. Supported guest operating systems
the focus is to optimize VirtualBox for the following guest systems:
1. Windows NT 4.0
All versions, editions and service packs are fully supported; however, there are some issues with older service packs. We recommend to install service pack 6a. Guest Additions are available with a limited feature set.
2. Windows 2000 / XP / Server 2003 / Vista / Server 2008 / Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Windows 8.1 / Windows 10 RTM 10240 / Server 2012
All versions, editions and service packs are fully supported (including 64-bit versions, under the preconditions listed below). Guest Additions are available. Windows 8 and later requires hardware virtualization to be enabled.
3. DOS / Windows 3.x / 95 / 98 / ME
Limited testing has been performed. Use beyond legacy installation mechanisms not recommended. No Guest Additions available.
