I've started to get the same stuff just today. At first I thought it was me, cause I had just shaken my keaboard a bit while cleaning it, and I thought I might have hit some weird combination of keys and changed my language options... but I checked them all, both in Dropbox and the OS (win7 too, btw), and it's all in English (US), keyboard in Spanish (as expected).
I ran an AVG scan on the dropbox folder and it came out clean. I uninstalled and re-installed Dropbox completely too, but the issue persists. I used google translator with the camera to check the meaning of all that... and it's the WEIRDEST and most random things lol... The characters change every time for me too, even for the same file. It only happens in Dropbox, nowhere else in my PC.
If anyone knows what it is, please reply... Thanks.
