How do I stop Dropbox from prompting to "set up dropbox" every time I log in to my Mac?

My wife does not have a dropbox account (I do), and every time she logs in to our Mac, Dropbox prompts to "Set Up Dropbox". How do we stop this?

There should be a Mac setting in the Users and Groups settings to prevent apps from loading up automatically in specific profiles.

That seems to have worked! Thank you.
