Dropbox StaffHi there mdubois - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Your account's password isn't stored in the Dropbox cache normally, but you can have a look here for more information.
As for the app remembering your credentials, have you ensured that you're logged out from any Dropbox account through the app's preferences?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
I have found the thing that was acting with admin rights without my permission in the system Library dropbox helper tools and that got rid of the issue with dropbox adding itself improperly to Accessibility settings without pemission on reinstall.
However, I am still missing something somewhere. Where does dropbox store the token or login info for the account on the device? Deleting the app and all the preferences didn't do that and it doesn't seem to be in the keychain.
I'm looking for everything I need to delete to have Dropbox be like a clean install when I remove and reinstall it.
