Hi All,  We have only just recently had a new folder automatically being created insome of our dropbox folders called "BROMIUM" which is supposedly for security purposes withnuntrusted files.  We have a Sophos system on our computers for protection - Can anyone tell me how to stop these BROMIUM folders being created automatically?  Thanks

They're likely being created by HP Sure Click or HP Wolf Security. Ask on the HP support site or uninstall/disable that software.
