Edit: Found a fix for myselfGo to proxies on your Mac and disable ''Auto Proxy Discovery''. I did not realise that this needed to be disabled in order for there to be no proxies. As I have a new computer I thought proxies where basically none.
Hope this helped someone. Here's another thread with more fixes.

For me Dropbox (The dropbox syncing program running on my Windows 7 (64 bit) PC)) always starts up fine, connecting and syncing but after a few hours it loses the connection and just says "Connecting..." when I hover my mouse of it's icon in the system tray.
If I right click and exit and then restart the program it works fine again for a few hours.
Pausing and resuming doesn't work for me.
