Ran into the same problem. For now, you can switch to Vbox-OSE which does not include the SharedFolder driver, and try to proceed from there. Or, you can disable / rename VboxSF.sys.

Unfortunately, disabling VBoxSF.sys merely allows you to boot a little further until you run into ticket #6453.

Still relevant with VBox 4.0.4?
