It’s about time Twitter started to ramp up their security features.  Spam and malicious software has been spreading through Twitter like wild fire the past several months.  It has gotten to a point where it is really out of control.  Fear not.  It appears Twitter is starting to take some precautionary measures.  I was forwarded the following email from Kevin of MacSlice.info.

It is about time! Thank you Twitter for being proactive, it is a nice change.
