When downloading a torrent file, Firefox use to auto-run the file after completing download. Resulting in the file being added to my torrent program. Now it stopped doing that and I can find where the setting is to change this behavior. Yesterday i did not have this problem.

Yes, for a strange reason, the default behaviour for downloading Torrent files changed to "save to" instead of opening the file with uTorrent (or BitTorrent or anything else you're using).

To fix this, go to your Firefox "Tools" menu, then choose "Options / Applications", and under "TORRENT File", change the value to your favourite Torrent application.

Hope this helps.

That doesn't fix a thing; still doesn't call torrent app automatically after dl completion; already verified file associations.
