After reading that section of the help manual, I realized I have read it before, but forgotten what it meant. Thanks for the reminder.

I don't know if this is an issue or not, but after running Install Updates again this morning, I noticed there were 3 packages held back and not upgraded. The 3 packages were:
linux-generic-lts-vivid
linux-headers-generic-lts-vivid
linux-image-generic-lts-vivid

My last statement was not clear on the fact that all of the software listed was installed from Lite Software at the same time as virtual box.
Just for clarity.

On a side note the other softwares installed were: Chrome, File and Folder search, Games pack, restricted extras, video editing software, and webcam software. The thought occurs that one of those may interfere with the virtual box install, so I thought I better let you know what they were.

I'm assuming you installed from Lite Software? I just installed from Lite Software and it installed no problem without any additional packages needed.

I installed virtual box from Lite Software, but it didn't show up in the menu until I installed the virtualbox-qt package from synaptic.
