About this question

I have seen this before, with people on my skype sending links to me. The accounts of your friends are probably hacked. They are sending spam or evil links to all contacts. Never click on those links. Probably that links are trying to execute javascript on your browser... trying to steal cookies or for any other evil purpose. Your friends should change their password quickly. Or maybe their computer is infected with malware If it is happening to you with ALL of your contacts... probably your account which is hacked or has malware.
