Vidalia -> Settings -> Advanced

TCP Connection. Normally it goes on auto. But I guess it can be set for
each instance. Now the ControlSocket would do exactly the same in an
Unix environment for an app that can use a special file?

Second: authentication. It is set for password. And the password is
randomly generated. I found the Socks 5 port, and connected to Jabber
with Pidgin through Tor. In my proxy configuration for the account in
Pidgin I left the user and password empty. And it still worked. Am I
missing something? Shouldn't the authentication be set to Nothing in
order to make it work?

Cheers!
