I've just received some news that I'd like to share with you all here!
It appears that ESET has fixed the problem that was causing this error.
For anyone running ESET on their device, please update to the most recent version of ESET to update to the software.
Once you've done this, you should be fine to revert back to the latest stable version of the Dropbox desktop app. You can install this from here.
Otherwise, you can just allow the app to auto-update to the latest stable when a new version is released.
Let me know how it goes!

Good morning. I'm dealing with a problem. Suddenly dropbox showed a message which was saying"Can't establish secure connection" and then my pc showed a second message which was saying : you computer is currently offline. please check your network settings. My settings are updated properly but it still show tha message. I was connected to internet via several netwroks but the problem remains. I found articles about similar problems which where fixed by changing the proxy option to no proxy but nothing.
Do you know what can I do?

Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that this is an issue with a Dropbox update? My Dropbox was working perfectly one minute and the next all of a sudden it was all belly up and non-fuctioning. It can't be an issue on my side. Why would it work one second and then not the next?
