Alternatively, as a hackish fix, you could modify your "permanent" installation
to bind to ports that won't conflict with TBB. Off the top of my head, I think you'd want
to pick non-default values for ControlPort and SocksPort in your torrc (with matching
values in Vidalia), as well as a non-default value for proxyPort in Polipo's config file,
and changing socksParentProxy (also in Polipo's config file) to point to the new value
you've given to torrc's SocksPort.
*I don't have TorButton to fenangle with * on this computer, but I'm sure
somewhere in its options or in about:config you can change the port it looks
for Polipo on, or plug it directly into Tor's socks port if you're not using
Polipo.
The ultimate goal here is to have your "permanent" installation of
Tor/Vidalia/Polipo/ * Firefox/TORBUTTON * use a completely different set of ports than
TBB. Like I said, hackish, but the result should be worth it if you use both often.

Justin, after re reading your suggestion few times, realized we don't
seem to be talking about same thing. I didn't mean running TBB & a ver
of FF w/ Tor / Torbutton. I meant TBB and just Tor / Vidalia/ Polipo
(no Firefox, Torbutton involved), so other apps could be torrified, but
not w/ Firefox running.
So any reference to Firefox / Torbutton don't apply to what I & others
wanted to do: Have a separate installation of Tor / Vidalia & run other
(non browser) apps thru Tor - whether at same time TBB is running or
not. Preferably, WHILE they're both running (TBB and Tor /Vidalia -
sans Torbutton). Maybe you did understand me, but I didn't understand
reply!
Thanks.
