Comment(by schulze):
But this is not just a Windows problem. If somebody installs Tor on Linux
using his distributions own packages (or the Tor projects deb/rpm
repository) he will get a Tor configured to listen on 9050.
If the user doesn't fix his torrc manually, Torbirdy will fail to connect
to the network.
I guess this is not too much of a problem, because most people use TBB as
the version of Tor recommended on https://www.torproject.org/download/,
but it will be for some.
