 I un-installed and removed anything related to the TorBundle and installed
 "vidalia-bridge-bundle-0.2.3.15-alpha-0.2.17.exe". One has to do this as
 admin.

 Now the installer places the GeoIP file under
 "C:\Users\administrator\AppData\Local\Tor"

 Launching Vidalia as admin gives the following warning.
 "[Warning] Failed to open GEOIP file
 C:\Users\administrator\AppData\Roaming\tor\geoip.  We've been configured
 to see which countries can access us as a bridge, and we need GEOIP
 information to tell which countries clients are in."

 Previously I copied the GeoIP file from the admins Roaming\tor\ to the
 limited user Roaming\tor\ after every update. This time I copied it from
 "C:\Users\administrator\AppData\Local\Tor" to "C:\Users\[limited
 user]\AppData\Local\Tor", and the Warning appears there as well.

 You place the file in \AppData\Roaming\tor\geoip, but look at
 AppData\Local\Tor

 It's a fresh install, with default torrc and default vidalia.conf
