If you're using Windows, open the folder where you're saving your torrents.

Right Click -> Open With -> Choose Program -> Choose whatever program you want to open it with, and check the box that says "Always use this program to open this kind of file". Click OK and it should do it for you.

Also, on some torrent clients, there's an option in the preferences that is something like "always use this client when opening torrents"

Right click on torrent->Properties->Opens with->chose the torrent client
This way all the torrents will be opened with that program you choose. Anyway is pretty strange because the bittorrent client automaticaly recognize and convert the torrent files so at double-click it should be opened with it.
