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!

Same here.
Tried different computer, ethernet, wifi, mobile internet, with or without virus/firewall.

Hi all; thanks for your reports on this one!
For everyone that's affected by this, could you let us know if you're also having issues with the latest beta version found here?

I still have the same problem with the new Beta update of Dropbox.
It looks like Dropbox is being blocked by ESET SSL Scanning. I have disabled SSL temporarily because I need my Dropbox files.
But this is not a secured situation so I hope there will be a solution soon.
