I recently got Tor, Privoxy, and Vidalia. Installed Torbutton for firefox and everything. Yet when I start Tor it said that Tor exited unexpectedly. The log file shows..

Mar 12 18:23:53:762 [Notice] Tor v0.1.1.26. This is experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity. Mar 12 18:23:53:763 [Notice] Initialized libevent version 1.1b using method win32. Good. Mar 12 18:23:53:764 [Notice] connection_create_listener(): Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 Mar 12 18:23:53:990 [Notice] connection_create_listener(): Opening Control listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 Mar 12 18:23:53:991 [Warning] connection_create_listener(): Could not bind to 127.0.0.1:9050: Address already in use [WSAEADDRINUSE ]. Is Tor already running? Mar 12 18:23:53:993 [Notice] options_act_reversible(): Closing Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 Mar 12 18:23:53:994 [Warning] Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to bind one of the listener ports. Mar 12 18:23:53:995 [Error] tor_init(): Reading config failed–see warnings above. For usage, try -h.

Any suggestions? I'm missing something very simple here I know it :p.
