Don't want Limewire to handle bit torrent info
 
I have uTorrent installed and like it. I don't want limewire to automatically start these downloads, but it does. Is there a way I can make limewire stop this. I've been to all of the tools and windows options and have unchecked the torrent boxes and such, but I can only use uTorrent if I uninstall Limewire. I don't want to have to do that all the time. Help is greatly appreciated.

OS - Win XP
Connect - DSL

You just need to go to the folder options for any folder and you can access the settings form there. Here's the long way around:

Go to Start > Control Panel > Appearance and Themes > Folder Options > File Types, in the window will be a list of file types, Scroll down the list till you find Torrent(TORR). Hi-lite it and go below the window where it says "Opens With" and click "Change". Find the program you want in the list. hi-lite it and click ok. That should be it. Try d/loading something and see if it works.
