Default Dropbox workaround

Since Dropbox stopped supporting Windows XP yesterday, I've had to
develop a workaround. Here it is, in case it helps anyone facing a
similar problem -- one line in a batch file:

XXCOPY J:\Dropbox\*.* G:\Stevedoc\Dropbox\ /BN /s /y


Why keep DB at all if it no longer does what you want it to do?
Delete it and setup a network share, etc.
