Just had someone tweet me a link on twitter.

Like a twat I clicked it.

Opened a page after a whole with something along lines of confirmed install of apache server?

Wtf is this and what do I need to do.

I deleted the app.

Took ages to load the page before that page was displayed.

You get spam on Twitter too. If they have a username of something like Delores542 and have no followers, that's normally a good indicator that they are a spammer.

Shouldn't have done, not without your permission to install it, but you're right to be vigilant.

Back in the day, they used to do, I think flash trojan drops.
You'd direct to a link, probably offering porn videos to gullible people, they'd click, it'd offer them to download flash or whatever it was, to play the video, obviously it all looked legit but was not flash, it was a trojan.
