You might have to uninstall and reinstall the tor browser. Maybe some Vidalia setting got screwed up and is making it not respond. It does that to me sometimes when I close it, it just goes to 100% cpu instead of closing so I have to endtask it.

Tor does not require an install. I have downloaded new copy's and still the same thing.

The tor message log says something about an internal bug.

What is the exact error in the message log?

make sure there aren't any tor.exe or vidalia.exe processes running in your task manager, you need to close them all first...

This appears to be a bug in 2.4-alpha

https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9047

Trying running the regular 2.3 stable branch, extract to a new folder, close all other versions.

The one time i had a issue with Tor it was simply because my Clock was off the correct time..
