When I upgrade the Oracle Virtualbox to 4.3.22, I got "connection 'Wired connection 1' activated" and "connection 'Wired connection 1' deactivated" in my guest OS, Kubuntu 14.04. In syslog, the following messages are repeated. This happens every a few minutes.

Oracle Virtualbox 4.3.22r98236
Also I found the same problem with CentOS: https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=51112
But, this doesn't happen Oracle Virtualbox 4.3.20r96997. So I reverted to 4.3.20r96997.

I had the same problem. After upgrading VBox to 4.3.30 it is gone :)
