Hey jpires, welcome to our Community! 

 

It does sound like there's some kind of security app/service that won't allow Dropbox to connect.

 

Apart from the firewall, do you perhaps have any other programs like an antivirus or VPN that could be blocking Dropbox and its domains?

 

Also, were you able to install the Dropbox desktop application with admin privileges? 

 

Keep me posted!
