 Vidalia and Tor were working fine for the past two weeks; suddenly today I
 got the error: "Vidalia was unable to connect to Tor. (Connection refused
 by peer.)

 When I open the log, I get no warnings.  Full log shows:

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Tor v0.2.2.32 (git-877e17749725ab88). This is
 experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity. (Running on
 Windows 7 Service Pack 1 [workstation])

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Initialized libevent version 2.0.14-stable
 using method win32. Good.

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:0

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Socks listener listening on port 52111.

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Opening Control listener on 127.0.0.1:0

 Sep 07 19:27:18.146 [Notice] Control listener listening on port 52112.

 Sep 07 19:27:18.259 [Notice] Based on 173 circuit times, it looks like we
 don't need to wait so long for circuits to finish. We will now assume a
 circuit is too slow to use after waiting 7 seconds.

 Sep 07 19:27:18.259 [Notice] Parsing GEOIP file .\Data\Tor\geoip.

 Sep 07 19:27:20.333 [Notice] OpenSSL OpenSSL 1.0.0d 8 Feb 2011
 looks like version 0.9.8m or later; I will try SSL_OP to enable
 renegotiation

 Sep 07 19:27:20.987 [Notice] We now have enough directory information to
 build circuits.

 Sep 07 19:27:20.988 [Notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor
 network.

 Sep 07 19:27:22.124 [Notice] Bootstrapped 85%: Finishing handshake with
 first hop.

 Sep 07 19:27:23.001 [Notice] Bootstrapped 90%: Establishing a Tor circuit.

 Sep 07 19:27:24.094 [Notice] Tor has successfully opened a circuit. Looks
 like client functionality is working.

 Sep 07 19:27:24.094 [Notice] Bootstrapped 100%: Done.

 I made no changes to my settings or network configuration, no changes or
 updates to my OS (Running Windows 7x64) or software/hardware
 configuration.  Basically, from a user-perspective, I made NO changes.
