 Tor daemon that is part of Tor Browser) are still running in the
 background.

 Is this something Tor Browser, or the startup script, can do automatically
 for the user? It seems bad to leave this trap lying around for users,
 especially if we don't know what fraction of users are hitting the problem
 (and abandoning Tor Browser because of it).
