Can I remove a source?

I accessed a user-created source incorrectly somehow (not sure which one) and now the update tracker is fouled up. I get a complicated error message when I first Load Updates, and my display shows question marks on every single thing in my menu.

Is there a way I can locate and edit my list of sources so the update checker will work properly? Is the list even accessible to the user?
 
Could you please right-click on the error message, copy it, and paste it here for us to see? Without knowing what error is occurring, we can't help you diagnose it.
 
The following errors were encountered while downloading secondary updates:

Error while retrieving https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5964125/herolab/gurpslite/updates.xml:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head><title>Dropbox - 404</title>
<link href="https://www.dropbox.com/static/css/error.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/static/images/favicon.ico"/>

Evidently I tried to link from a Dropbox file instead of an active directory. No surprise that would stymie the system. The question now is how do I get rid of that entry (I'm pretty sure I sourced the same content elsewhere.)
 
On the "Select a Game" menu, click "Find Updates" at the bottom right. Just below the list of downloads is an "Add Source" button. Click that, and it will open a list of all the options you added for download locations, with a delete button for each.
 
Thanks! The problem wasn't the dropbox -- it was that I was trying to link to content that had been taken down by its creator.
