Ok, title changed again. :)

Problem with `libssp-0.dll` dynamically linked to `updater.exe`. Loader
tries to search dll:

Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\Caches\firefox\updates\0\libssp-0.dll
NOT FOUND

This makes sense.
I've found that the Win 7 machine has "libssp-0.dll" on Pidgin install
folder.
> The same problem with dynamically linked `msvcr100.dll`, loader can't
handle proper path and tries to load it from C:\Program Files\Mozilla
Firefox (successfully if Firefox installed).
My Win 7 has "msvcr100.dll" on System32 folder.
Probably that's why TBB is updating on Win 7 machine and not the XP or
Virtual Win 7 (both has no pidgin installed and no 'libssp-0.dll', also no
Firefox Installed).
Thanks!
