Steps to reproduce: * Navigate to a popular torrent site such as thepiratebay.org * Search for "Big Buck Bunny" and click a relevant result * Click the link to begin the download Expected result: * Firefox downloads Big Buck Bunny, as it would using HTTP or FTP Actual result: * Firefox downloads the .torrent file, offering to pass it on to Transmission. Notes: * This behavior is confusing to anyone who is not familiar with bittorrent, ie the "humans" for whom Ubuntu is designed.
