    @(you need an account to see links) : my avast or malwarebytes are not catching the problem for me but that site opens on every first click on every neo-page. and adblock closes the tab before it can load completely. and yes, it is only happening on chrome. thanks for confirming it a bit. i hope you or someone else can figure out the problem and a solution for it. i be really grateful.
    i like to rs semi-legit on chrome but this issue is frustrating even when browsing on neo or doing anything :/

    This may be your issue depending on the version of uTorrent, I couldn't imagine it being specific to neo but anything past like 3.0 is filled with malware/crapware in both the installer and the client itself(Which is why almost every private torrenting site doesn't allow connections from clients past 2.5/3 depending the site)

    Well, the site the URL goes to is (you need an account to see links) though smarturl can redirect you by geo-location so for you it could be different, but with the new utorrent builds they can silently put software on your PC that you didn't agree to, and it won't show up in Control Panel. If you want to attempt cleaning up by hand if MBAM/Etc aren't picking it up you could search through your appdata folder(C:/users/(Your windows username here)/appdata) and look for anything that is there that shouldn't be, but since you said you just installed Windows it could be just as worthwhile to do a fresh install again.
