Firefox and AdBlockPlus, accidentally blocked the "select files" button for Dropbox uploader, and now I can't click it to upload anything. Tried going into the preferences for blocked items, but I tried searching entries for "dropbox" "drop box" "drop" "box" but I can't find any of the entries (or I have troubles identifying them).

Developers for the program are partially to blame, for putting the "Block..." button next to the uploader button. Not smart. My fault for clicking it, but it would be smart if it wasn't there.

I'm not familiar with dropbox but assuming it's a url you go to, go there, click the ABP icon right top in FF and select "disable on <URL>" or "Only disable on this page" (Text may differ as i'm using a localized language version) Hope this helps.
