Just install Tor with the default settings and then in bitcoin-qt go to settings, options, network and change the port to 9150. (make sure "Connect through SOCKS proxy" is selected and that the SOCKS version is 5)
P.S. I not sure if Tor is set to configure controlport automatically by default or not, but if the above doesn't work you can try going to the advanced tab in Tor and deselecting it.

Hi,
1. Whenever I installed new version of TOR I had to manually change torrc file (add / type in socksport 9050 or 9051).
2. With the newest security update torrc file no longer displays what it used to.
3. Can someone advise on what file (and how) I should alter to be able to connect Bitcoin-Qt through it?
Thanks
