Dropbox 2.9.51 Beta Now Available for Download

Dropbox has released Dropbox 2.9.51 beta (aka Testing) build of client for Windows, Mac and Linux. This new build includes more fixes for Windows icon overlays.

Overview
Dropbox works just like any other folder on your computer, but with a few differences. Any files or folders inside Dropbox will get synchronized to Dropbox's servers and any other computer linked to your account. The green checkmarks will appear on top of your files to let you know that they're synced and up to date. All data is transferred over SSL and encrypted with AES-256 before storage. Dropbox keeps track of every change made to any of its contents.

The 2.9 branch introduces a streaming sync that speeds up syncing for larger files. As a large file is uploaded to Dropbox servers, other desktop clients with access to that file will begin downloading the file in the background. This makes large files sync faster between your computers using the same Dropbox account as well as in shared folders.

What's new in Dropbox 2.9?
Dropbox 2.9 branch introduces a number of new features and improvements includes:

• Streaming sync.
• Scrollable tray pop-up.
• Improved initial sync performance.
• New languages: Danish, Dutch, Swedish, Thai, & Ukrainian.
• Over quota splash screen.
