Default Opera and Torrents

I hate downloading a Torrent and Opera automatically decides to open it with its integrated Torrent download client. I want to have it automatically open in uTorrent. How can I do this?

For now, I'm just downloading torrent files with right-click > "save as..." and opening them up manually...

I dunnue, I always use Firefox to download torrents, Im sure theres an option somewhere to disable the built in client, just play around and explore all the tool/option menus.

Have you tried doing a simple google search for your answer?

normally when you first start downloading torrents it will give you the option what programme to open torrents with, then theres a check box that says "always use this programme for torrents" or words to that effect

^ nah, it's not that simple jonny, Opera opens it itself before I have the opportunity to do that,

Actually, you should really try it. It has plenty of awesome features that are actually useful, although I've temporarily switched to Firefox for now because it seems to run a lot smoother on this old computer of mine that I'm working off of until I can make a new build. This TNT2 is a joke.
