Via https://www.dropbox.com/account/general 

If it requests a code you may need to log a ticket at http://www.dropbox.com/support as there is no way around that. 

However I cannot stress this enough download all your data now and keep it safe. If you get logged out there is a VERY GOOD chance you'll loose access to the account and thus your data. 

You may actually find it easier to just loose the account you have and set up a new one.
