Stop Dropbox from automatically updating itself on OS X

dropbox

Dropbox seems to auto-update itself on OS X. Problem is that the latest version of Dropbox doesn't support OS X 10.10.0 which I have to run for compatibility with other apps.

I tried re.installing an older version of Dropbox, which then works for a few minutes before it updates itself again.

Is there a way to stop Dropbox from updating itself so I can stay with an older version of Dropbox?

Your may try moving it from /Applications/ to /Applications/Utilities. Dropbox does not automatically updates when I keep it in Utilities folder.
