As Tracy says, the Dropbox/Cloud copy is normally a copy and not a live 
document so once it becomes infected on your local drive then such as Dropbox 
will sync it onto the cloud after which you may want to sync it back down but 
that would be too late as it would already be virussed. At least the current 
version gives the filename a stand out extension so the original non modified 
dbf etc. would still be there.


Dropbox saves versions of files with the same name so if they infected the file without renaming (say for your photos) you can go back a version.
