Change the torrent file name before downloading

Some torrent files have special characters like - : - and this causes an error because the app change it to underscore but still looking for the path with that special character so it shows error " error no such file or directory ".

I think this is a serious issue, because there is nothing the user can do to fix the problem, & it prevents downloading! Torrent files with : in a file name cannot finish, & also create an endless string of duplicate files when tTorrent tries to Check the progress & can't find the file.

This error not only prevents downloading files with : in the filename, it causes tTorrent to waste massive amounts of data endlessly redownloading the same thing AND eat up ALL the free space on the disk! This is very dangerous & can ruin the flash memory!

Fixing this issue should be a top priority.
