Description of my issue:
I tried to enabled uploading the archived backup to Box.net (following the manual, I got the pro version yesterday). Authentication step 1 was succefull. After that authentication step 2 returned an "OK!", but the folder listing never worked. If I hit authentication step 2 a second time it returns an error. Repeating the steps (tried in different order) didn't work.

It seems that the authentication (probably the token is returned) is used once and then stops working.

Yesterday I tried is with Firefox 22 and 23, today I used IE9 at work. The first time I got a list of all the folders I have in Box.net, but the second time refresh didn't work. I tried to configure another backup profile to use Box.net, but got the same results as the day before with Firefox.

I tried to search the support site, but can't find a solution here. Dropbox workes fine, by the way. For both profiles.

After doing the first two authentication steps with Box.com click on Save. The page reloads. You can now see the list of folders.
