Malicious skype link? Help please

[Theonelemon]

I was sent a link over skype by a contact. It was a twitter link however when hovering over the link it showed me a goo.gl link

 

I was being dumb and clicked this link. The link took me to a the website 'Womens Health Magazine" in the fitness section. As far as I can see in my chrome option nothing was downloaded or anything like that.

 

Am I at risk here? I can provide more information if requested thanks!

Please remove the like from your post. Could be something bad. Just scan your system using Malwerbytes.

ok thanks i removed it but does this seem like some kind of keylogger. The link had my skype name at the end.

Well, if you haven't noticed anything wrong there doesn't seem to be a problem. However, if you do, give me a yell.

I have been following this video - 

 

I checked if any programs had access to skype and that came up empty which is a good sign however I found this in my appdata - http://gyazo.com/8d6eb1d559615d2468b35d11d1261220

 

What should I do with that chinese writing thing.

I'd just do some scans with like adwcleaner + ccleaner to be sure.

Somehow my skype account has premium so I think i will just delete everything that has to do with skype, reinstall, do a virus sweep, and then delete all my contacts and start fresh. Does it sound like a safe plan?
