Every torrent opens in a new instance?

Hi, I searched and could not find an answer to my issue, so I'll try here.

First off, I use Firefox.

I used BitComet from .57 to .60, then heard about it not playing nice, so I switched to Azureus 2.3.0.6 - which I liked but had problems opening my .torrent files if I chose to simply open them instead of download them. I had to download them then doubleclick them to get them to work properly. Regardless, it was a pain, and really a bloated client.

I switched to µtorrent today but i'm having one small issue that I cannot seem to resolve. I'm downloading from a torrent, and I decide to start a second download. For some reason, µtorrent spawns a second instance to try to download that torrent in. This happens whether I try to open it directly from Firefox, or if I save it somewhere and doubleclick the torrent file. I find the only way to get multiple torrents going in the same µtorrent instance is to drag-and-drop a torrent file into µtorrent's interface that's already running. BitComet and Azureus both would just add torrents to the existing instance I had running when opening an additional torrent.

Sorry if this has been posted before.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

My topic title is more descriptive to the problem, as it's not really browser-related as the other topic might lead one to believe. And i think I can just erase my posts, not actually a whole topic, but I may be wrong.
