I got the virus message and rebooted and scanned it with the latest Symantec
updates in place. It appears to be a hoax.

Hello Histarchers,

Apparently my computer is sick, because a bunch of people have reported
getting blank / nonsense messages from me, and someone figured out that
it came through histarch (I also got a notification for sending a
message to the list when I did not).

I also received an automatic message saying I send out something with a
virus, so for goodness sake, don't open anything from me if you don't
know what it is!

Sorry about this,

Anna
