Update: I just overwrote my uTorrent 32-bit folder (which had yesterday's alpha/beta build) with v2.2.1 Build 25302 and now I have no problems. Prior to this, once launched, I did not have any time to right-click or do anything as the window was immediately frozen.
When I want to open a torrent in utorrent (v2.2.1, build 25302) I just click it. Sometimes, I want to save it, but even then, utorrent automatically opens it. This happens only with chrome but not with Firefox.
Not sure where your getting your info but if you go to a torrent site and click on it in Chrome - it will try to open it rather then pass it to utorrent program. I already know this to be true using both FireFox and Chrome. Nothing was changed and FireFox does a better job at handling torrent files to pass it to utorrent.
