Will the SSO Alert Service affect my computer in any way?

The SSO Alert Service is an email and RSS based service only.  No software is installed on your computer as a result of registering for this service.  It will not affect your computer, or any software on your computer or your Internet connection in anyway.

The service is intended to provide email and RSS warnings about computer threats and software bugs in a timely manner for Australian internet users.

The free service is not a substitute for using security software and adopting other good online practices to keep your computer and personal information safe and secure.  For information about other counter-measures that you should follow refer to the Secure Computing Checklist.
