Don't link to dropbox folder in windows anymore!

ARGHHHH!!!
OK, so putting folders outside your Dropbox folder into your Dropbox sync by linking to said folders with ln -s works perfectly in Linux, but using mklink in Windows it fails miserable.
Bad Idea.

This is the 3rd time I've had to restore my files from Dropbox, after this somehow makes Dropbox delete all my files in them.
Another reminder to self.

Now to find a syncing solution between the windows Dropbox folder and those folders outside my dropbox ... Probably will just use synctoy.
