Thanks for the response. I understand. Below, you will find the copy of the
Vidalia generated torrc.

The problem is occurring on a system running MS Windows XP SP2.

Note that prior to the upgrade from 0.2.0.31 to 0.2.1.7 I had no problems. The
problems started occurring as soon as I started Tor again via Vidalia after the
upgrade. Also note that I do not have any problems running the Tor client.

Thanks
