 Priority:  critical   |      Milestone:                 
Component:  Vidalia    |        Version:  Vidalia: 0.2.20

 Steps to reproduce

 ----
  1. Open Start Tor Browser.exe without any proxy defined in the settings
 (torrc file).
  1. Enter any proxy and any port, and select HTTP/HTTPS as the proxy type,
 and save the settings.
  1. Successfully connect to Tor.
  1. Close TorBrowser, therefore closing Vidalia.
  1. Restart Vidalia by opening Start Tor Browser.exe.
  1. Once Vidalia is open, immediately click "Stop Tor".
  1. Open up settings, disable the proxy by unchecking "I use a proxy to
 access the Internet" and click "OK".

 Current Behavior
 ---
 Tor still uses the proxy to connect to the Tor network.

 Expected Behavior
 ---
 Tor establishes a direct connection to the Tor network.

 On a side note, the torrc file still has the proxy line, so I could just
 delete that particular line for now as a workaround. Looking forward to a
 fix.
