The only place, other than /sw that I find those files is under /Library/DropboxHelperInstaller I don't know what it means but I see: `--> ll -A /Library/DropboxHelperTools total 1496 -r-s--x--x+ 1 root wheel 246 Apr 16 09:25 ._DropboxHelperInstaller -r-s--x--x+ 1 root wheel 1523840 Apr 16 09:25 DropboxHelperInstaller drwxr-xr-x+ 10 root wheel 340 Apr 16 09:25 Dropbox_u501 and more under that directory. `--> sudo file /Library/DropboxHelperTools/._* /Library/DropboxHelperTools/._DropboxHelperInstaller: setuid AppleDouble encoded Macintosh file AppleDouble? That's a blast from the past I think.
