Hello Nancy,
I figured it out, the file I shared was flagged for possible malware (it does not have malware). I was able to un-ban myself by following some links.

If a lot of people tried to access and download the files from your shared links, then it's quite possible that your sharing activity would be paused (please also check this Help Center article for more details).
Since you mention not using all of your daily bandwidth though, is it possible you're getting a different type of error? Can you send me a screenshot of it?
You can also try creating a new shared link on your Dropbox account to see if there are any kind of issues while doing so.
Let me know what you find.
