Every time I plug in removable media Dropbox opens and this window comes up. I only ever want dropbox to open if it's manually started by the user. I have unchecked 'preferences > settings > start with computer' but it still seems to startup for random reasons.

So this irritated me for a long while and I finally spent the time to figure it out. I went into Control Panel -> autoplay and then found a couple of entries that I changed the default action for: control panel->autoplay

Have you tried clicking the "Don't ask again" button in the lower left of your screenshot? FYI, that may be per device. You don't want to disable dropbox starting automatically with Windows or it won't sync your files.
