I did look at all the removal and mystery installing info. I have never used Dropbox. I started getting Growl notifications in BBEdit yesterday, and now I am getting them in Firefox today. I have not downloaded or installed or updated any apps for weeks. I would not have approved the Growl installation if I had been asked without finding out what it was. I generally like to keep my system 'barebones' to cut down on problems!
