Desktop folder sync

"We are currently rolling out Sync in waves to our Business and Enterprise customers"

Dropbox sync tool works fine with windows folders
2 Notes:
- doesn't work through our corporate firewall.
- The installation of the Dropbox sync tool doesn't ask for a location: the application gets installed inside your user profile somewhere. Which is too small for our corporate profile.
But @ home it works just fine!

	you can change the dropbox location after install. Though, I remember I can select the location while installation. – Nam G. VU Sep 13 '10 at 15:24
	You can indeed change the location of the folder you want to sync, but AFAIK you cannot change the location of the service/application file: "dropboxsync.exe" or something. And that file is too big to store in my user profile which is limited by company policy. – jan Sep 14 '10 at 8:41
