It hasn't happened for a few months for me. I am at the latest version of VMWare 6, Kubuntu 7.10.
What made the biggest difference for VMWare was downloading the latest version of the Madwifi wireless driver. (I found that advice somewhere on the Ubuntu forums). I need to rebuild the driver every time the kernel gets updated but vmware is stable, so it is worth it. Before this change VMWare would not set up Bridged networking. Now everything works. I may have found the fix when I was trying to get Bridged working so searches about problems with Bridged support in VMWare might be useful.
