Comment:

 I have no idea what to do with that file; yeesh.  Also, I have no idea
 what the "tor driver" is.  Does that computer have some weird driver
 claiming to be tor?

 To experiment with a windows tor with no mmap, just change the "#elif
 defined(_WIN32)" on compat.c line 216 to something like #elif 0, so that
 it uses the fallback implementation.  If that makes the problem go away,
 it looks like it's time to implement "kaspersky mode".
