Anyway to use Trackr/dropbox to send the .torrent file to your watch directory on your seedbox? I don't download torrents on my computer mainly for security reasons..

I am very close to getting this sorted I will let you know when I have done it! Based on the info I now have I am 99% sure I can do what I want to do, I won't have time today I don't think to play around with it but I'll let you know when I have... (If I can get Trackr to work I think its possible to get a program to auto download from my dropbox and then cuteFTP to watch the folder and upload to my watch folder on the seedbox.. - Phew!!)

I'm using iCab-Mobile for downloading the torrents to dropbox. And I installed dropbox on my pc so that my torrents will be downloaded there. From there I'm using CuteFTP for uploading them to my watch folder of my seedbox. It works and all is automated. The disadvantage is, that the pc needs to be running all the time. Unfortuantely I didn't find a solution for sending the torrent directly to the watch folder of the seedbox.

Cool! I tried that icab to upload .torrents to my dropbox then installed dropbox on my pc and set up cuteftp to watch the folder and send to watch folder on seedbox as you suggested.. It doesn't matter to me that I have to leave my pc on all the time because I do anyway! It all works like a dream so really thanks for helping me. :)
