After lots of trial and error I found this work for me.
- Click on Start. Type Run
- Type C:\Users\Gravitino\AppData\Roaming Alternatively locate this folder called Roaming within your AppData folder.
- Inside this folder you would find Dropbox folder. Go into this folder, you would find a bin folder. Find the file called DropboxUninstaller.exe
- Now if you click on this DropboxUninstaller.exe you would get same message as before "error .." Instead Right Click on DropboxUninstaller.exe and click on Run as Administrator.
- This will remove the Dropbox. Now you can make a fresh installation. Good luck!

I was getting the same error with Dropbox and I tried Nigel's way as well and it worked. I even managed to uninstall it by running it as an administrator. That worked as well. It won't reinstall though. The website downloaded two files, the setup and the installer file. Both won't work. It asks to try again later and clears the entire setup.
