How can I remove this non-functional duplicate Dropbox folder shortcut from the sidebar?

I have tried uninstalling Dropbox and deleting the following directories:

/Library/DropboxHelperTool
~/Dropbox.dropbox.cache

My /Library/Contextual Menu Items is empty despite what is written in the Dropbox uninstalling instructions.

Best Answer

It was a broken folder reference, and it could be removed by holding cmd+alt and dragging the shortcut off the sidebar.
