Dropbox account "full"

I only have 4  MB of files on dropbox, but it says my account is full. Does anyone know why that would be?

      When I click on Backups, it says there is an external hard drive, but I am not clear what is backing up what or why. I can't see the external hard drive in my dropbox account, and I never asked dropbox to back it up, or vice versa.
