This problem should be elevated to the top of the stack. For me it often causes a complete lockup requiring a hard boot to recover. The system will not even respond to CAD. This is a recipe for disaster. I kept looking for a contributing cause, but after digging into the problem I found there is none. I can't be the only one being impacted in this manner. I would guess that many users with this problem are unable to track it to the source, so it goes unreported.

      Since I uninstalled Dropbox my computer has been running 24/7 for 2 weeks now without ANY problems... There were other issues as well that I did not link to Dropbox (graphic issues and other things) but they have also disappeared... Something is very wrong with DbxSvc...
