I inadvertently downloaded a malware or virus last night and when I realized it, I shut down my laptop. I want to go back in and remove the whole Dropbox drive from my computer so it can't hurt those files. But they are all local as well as Dropbox as I have had them there a really long time before there was as app with the synch feature. How do I do this so I remove the whole DB drive from just that computer?
Thanks for your help...

Thank you so much. You saved me!! Now my follow up question is whether or not I can add that device back on in the security settings, now that the malware has been removed.
Thanks so much!
