[LEFT]I'm looking for a one-click way to download and run certain files. When I'm trying to download TV episodes that I've missed, it's annoying to go through several dialogs before the torrent files finally hit uTorrent. Then I have to be assed with closing the download manager window.

It would be awfully nice if I could just click on a link to a torrent file and have it automatically save it to a temporary folder and run it with the default application. Does anything like this exist? I guess I'll write my own if not.

Oh, and I've already searched, so no wiseass answers please. ;)

Opera has built-in torrent support. I don't know how good it is.

Personally I have uTorrent set up to read torrent files from my download folder. Then I just download torrent files and uTorrent picks them up automatically.

Ditch the download manager, download statusbar is way better :p

;) Assuming you are on a more recent build.

Also, I agree with Cool Matty.

I know, I use it on another machine. It's still not perfect though.

Vegiemaster, I already have that set. But I still have the download manager (or statusbar) that gets the torrent entered into it. I want one-click straight into uTorrent.
