Thank you for all the help I received.
I followed the instructions below and all seems working.
The source was Ubuntu Forums.

-Install XP or other OS

-Create a group called "usbfs" and add yourself to it.

-In terminal issue the following command:

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

-In this file paste the following lines, and change the group ID according
to the group ID that is shown for the group "usbfs".


# 1001 is the USB group ID
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=1001,devmode=664 0 0


-Save and close file.


-In terminal, issue the following command:

VBoxManage list usbhost

-Use the output of this command to set up the filters for USB devices under
VirtualBox.

-Reboot

The reason I am publishing this is because if anybody else will need it.
