Or better yet, where can I find step by step instructions on setting up Dropbox. I think key is the fact that when I go to my home computer and look at Dropbox it appears as the above screen capture and I'm not sure where that physically exists but the folder is empty.

You'll need to reinstall the Dropbox desktop application on the remote machine to be certain it's working normally, and then test it by adding a file there to see if it appears on your local computer.
