"Gmail users who are logged into the accompanying chat service Google Chat, as most are, have been getting messages that appear to be from friends, urging them to click on a Web address starting with tinyurl.com that takes them to a site called ViddyHo. The site asks for the person’s Gmail log-in information and then hijacks the account, sending out chat messages to all of the user’s contacts and spreading itself further."

I got this spam in my gtalk and clicked on the link.  But unfortunately I did not sign in.  Is my gmail a/c safe???

I can't even get to the ViddyHo site using Firefox and IE says it isn't a web site. You should use Firefox, it blocks it as a phishing site.
