Vidalia detected that Tor extied Unexpectedly

Win XP with all upgrades and security patches. 2.67GHZ Pentium 4 512MB DDR Ram G Force II Video Card, etc

I was hoping to improve performance with TOR, so I upgraded my older version of Tor v 0 0.9 to the latest version v 0.1.1.23 (Bundled with Vidalia & Privoxy) on your download site. I restarted my computer and when Tor attempted to connect and I got the error:

Vidalia detected that Tor exited unexpectedly.

Here is the log:

Oct 09 18:22:28:765 [Notice] Tor v0.1.1.23. This is experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity. Oct 09 18:22:29:140 [Error] tor_init(): Reading config failed--see warnings above. For usage, try -h. Oct 09 18:22:57:015 [Notice] connection_create_listener(): Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 Oct 09 18:22:57:140 [Warning] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to bind one of the listener ports. Oct 09 18:22:57:156 [Error] tor_init(): Reading config failed--see warnings above. For usage, try -h. Oct 09 18:28:47:812 [Notice] connection_create_listener(): Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 Oct 09 18:28:47:921 [Warning] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to bind one of the listener ports. Oct 09 18:28:47:937 [Error] tor_init(): Reading config failed--see warnings above. For usage, try -h.

I then went to Add/Remove Programs and removed both versions of Tor, Vidalia and Privoxy. I then went to MSCONFIG and removed checks from all instances of TOR, Vidalia and Privoxy and then restarted and re-installed the new versions again and go the same errors.

I tried finding the older versions of Tor on Google/Yahoo, but they since been removed and all download links lead to the newer bundled version of Tor with Vidalia. Please inform me how to get Tor running again.
