Last version intercept not work. It throws errorCode=25 Could not parse BitTorrent metainfo

Immensely useful plugin, just gets on with it - love the way it can be set up to left-click-intercept files based on size-threshold as well as extension type, for example you can have all ISO files brought in by Aria2 and the rest downloaded normally if you like.
