Comment(by rransom):

 Editing `FirefoxPortable/App/DefaultData/profile/prefs.js` to set
 `extensions.torbutton.proxies_applied` to `false` (instead of `true`,
 which that file currently sets) fixes this bug, but prevents check.tpo
 from appearing properly on startup.  This change needs to be made in both
 `build-scripts/config/prefs.js` and `build-scripts/config/linux-prefs.js`
 in the TBB source repository, and possibly other places.
