Today I received an email from someone I know and all that was included was a link, including leighannswords.com in the string. Although I was suspicious I clicked on the link and it redirected me to a website selling Viagra.
A quick Google doesn't show anything linked to that URL.
I'm concerned it may have infected my iPhone in some way as the next time I used the phone it prompted me to set Yahoo as my home page - when I cancelled it there was a webpage which looked like a Yahoo page (although it couuld have been a hoax I guess) in the browser which I did not go to - presumably triggered by the link.
What's the verdict - a likely infection?
What's the best course of action - wipe the OS and restore from last backup?
