OSXFUSE Project
OSXFUSE allows you to extend Mac OS X's native file handling capabilities via third-party file systems. It is a successor to MacFUSE, which is no longer being maintained.
As a user, installing the OSXFUSE software package will let you use any third-party file system written atop OSXFUSE or MacFUSE, if you choose to install the MacFUSE compatibility layer. As a developer you can use the OSXFUSE SDK to write numerous types of file systems as regular user space programs. The content of these file systems can come from anywhere: from the local disk, from across the network,

What's New
Version 2.3.9:
- Added support for building PowerPC file systems on Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7, if an appropriate version of Xcode is installed (e.g. Xcode 3.2.6).
- Fixed a race condition, that would lead to a file system deadlock. The deadlock could be triggered by a read/write operation on a file, that had just been created (but not opened, yet).
- Fixed a deadlock that affected certain file systems (i. e. MooseFS).
- Fixed an issue that could trigger a "vnode reclaim in progress" kernel panic on 32-bit kernels
- Fixed an issue where Finder would report a wrong file size for files on sparse FUSE file systems.
- Fixed an issue that caused Finder on Mac OS X 10.6 and later to not display updated free/used space values for FUSE volumes.
- Significant speed improvements for read/write operations on FUSE volumes.

The suggested fix (https://gist.github.com/1100318#gistcomment-41742) has been there since July but still no new version that includes it (it's December now).

This timeout issue is caused by NTFS-3G in combination with Lion. It has to be addressed in an NTFS-3G update! Since OSXFUSE and NTFS-3G are independent projects providing the workaround is pretty much all that can be done from the OSXFUSE end.

Tried it. Have it. However, I keep getting an annoying timeout error message with NTFS-3G. I can't find a way to switch this message off. Otherwise, yes, it works.

That's actually a bug in Lion. If you know your way around Terminal/gcc, take a look at https://gist.github.com/1100318. A comment explaining what to do is below the code.

Would have been great if Parallels 7 had given the option to remove MacFUSE to help alleviate the confusion, but oh well.
Anyway, Parallels 7 has it's own built-in way to mount VM images now so you no longer need MacFUSE, etc. for Parallels.
