Back when my favorite torrent sites had "standard torrent files", instead of the new "magnetic", I was very satisfied with how I had worked an automatic torrent downloader.

I downloaded the torrent from an unspecific computer, put the torrent in a folder that was checked by my always connected Win7 computer running uTorrent every now and then. When uTorrent found a new torrent in the folder, it started the download.

Is there any simple way I can to this, using the magnetic links? I would prefer using OS X, but still have a Win7 machine that's active.

Any tips would be highly appreciated.
