Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Hang that coming up after progress dialog completed is not about Tor
 Launcher.

 Hang happens only with blocking socket, so it could to happen on
 `TorSendCommand` or `TorRetrieveBootstrapStatus` and friends, which
 unlikely could to bypass hang on `writeBytes` and to hang on `readBytes()`
 latter.
 And if thread hangs then why progress window vanishes?

 More likely two different bugs in here, hang in `readBytes()` of Tor
 Launcher long before progress completes, and hang triggered by
 `torbutton_local_tor_check` of Torbutton just after progress completes and
 before browser window should to appear. You can to reproduce it, place
 `while(true){}` loop to begin of `torbutton_send_ctrl_cmd` and observe the
 same as described behavior.
