I have no idea why it would do something like this. Maybe Bertalan 
can chime in soon, as he's the JEdit guy and I know he's used 
VirtualBox and lilybuntu.  Do you have a backup of your .jedit 
folder?  Or maybe you can create a new .jedit folder and copy the 
contents of temp.jedit into it. I don't use JEdit or even Windows 
except as a virtual machine, so I'm afraid I can't be much help. 
If VirtualBox relies on Java in some way, then maybe the runtime 
environment got messed up for JEdit.
