Comment:

 I can confirm this bug at least on Windows: Vidalia is already running,
 say, configured as a bridge. The Tor Browser Bundle tries to launch a
 second instance of Vidalia, which fails to connect to the existing Tor
 (instead of launching a second instance of that as well?) and prompts for
 a password. It does not launch Aurora.

 On tor-talk, people have also discussed launching TBB-Firefox directly. I
 tried that by running "FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox\tbb-firefox.exe --no-
 remote -profile .\Data\profile" inside the extracted directory. A Firefox
 window appears, but closes again very quickly.
