great, Tor starts up with no problems now. The cached-status and
cached-routers file is 1.9 MB compressed, if you'd like me to post it I
can stick it online somewhere. The "dragonlord" entry in the
cached-routers status is the last entry in the file, and I've attached
the last two entries to this e-mail.<br>

Thanks again!<br>

Exciting. Can you make a backup copy of all the files in C:\Documents and
Settings\Jevon\Application Data\tor\, and then delete the cached-routers*
and cached-status/* files and try starting Tor again?
If it works after that, then we really want to see the cached-routers
file that breaks it.
(If you're feeling adventurous, you could put the old versions back into
place and see if it is broken again.)
Thanks!
