I have installed VirtualBox-4.0-4.0.14_74382_fedora14-1.x86_64 and have been running it for quite some time. I have
now noticed that a new version VirtualBox-4.1-4.1.6_74713_fedora14-1.x86_64 is available but not as an update only
as a new install. Is it safe to remove the current package and install the new one? Will my virtual machines be
automatically picked up by the installation process?

this is linux not windows
rpm -Uvh "package.rpm" or better "yum --nogpgcheck update package.rpm"
to update downloaded packages

My question had nothing to do with windows. I have never run windows except as virtual machines. and "yum update VirtualBox*" gets "No Packages marked for Update" so a clean install is needed.
