Your temp folder is usually located in your home folder. Failing that the temp files may be in the .bittornado folder which is a hidden folder. Use the menu option show hidden files to reveal it.
yeah, i've tried to search for "*.torrent"... and there are no search results found... i can't find it for the life of me
It seems the .torrent file has not been saved. I suggest downloading another torrent just to see where that .torrent file is (or wants to be) saved. Also check the settings in Bittornado to see if you can set a default directory for saving.
