 Earlier versions of tor and torbutton used 9050 but TBB 2.3.25-5 uses 9150
 and 9151.

 This causes a conflict because if you have other applications set to use
 tor on 9050, they won't work unless they're reconfigured.

 Also, changing tor's config to use 9050 means tbb-firefox won't work
 unless you override the port setting in Torbutton.
