Deleted the GPL folder and unzipped to /c/backup/GPL and then did "make && make prepare" command and this is the error code I got.
When and how should I run this download? I can download the file and then do I then "Put" the .run file in the which directory and sh it to run and compile the needed modules?
I think I am getting there and thanks for your help. I am determined to get this going just keep the suggestions coming.

Basically, just download and install http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualb ... _amd64.run. Upon installation, it will compile the needed modules, if you have the kernel tree ready to go (apt-get install build-essential, and drop the GPL/linux-kernel-2.6 files in /usr/src/linux)
