Mmm, I said in my previous mail that this doesn't happen to me. The torrent
mimetype is associated with gnome-bt, so your second workflow (browser pulls
down the torrent file and loads gnome-bt immediately) is what I see here.

I also suggested that a possible cause could be a webserver not correctly
setting the mimetype for torrent files, telling the browser it's text/plain
or something similar, which would result in the behaviour you're seeing.

But that's not the fault of gnome-bt. :-)
