What happens to my twitter account?

[Grae]

I was checking my direct messages on my twitter account and i saw someone send me a message saying "someone is saying bad rumors about you" and i saw this link http://t.co/44Kyuax with the message. I clicked on it and it brought me to a security page, after that i saw a lot messages saying the same things but this time it was me the sender and people start to get angry because i send them messages that i don't even write. Please help me, I would like to know if my account has been hacked or what,

Its a virus that someone gets and then whenever someone clicks it it will give them the virus and send the message to all their followers or following , i dont think it has any other effects apart from sending a message

P.S thanks for answering my question my computor is fixed now
