Castle NewsAlert is a technology designed
by Castle Software to bring you News, Tips and Updates
for our products as quickly as possible. With
NewsAlert, you can be comfortable that you :
- have up to date information about the Castle
products you are using.
- have the latest Tips for those products.
- have the latest program updates.
- have the latest news on other Castle products.

| Programs that contain the NewsAlert
technology will check for news once automatically
when the program starts1.
However, you can run NewsAlert manually as
many times as you like. Programs that contain
NewsAlert technology will have a Check for
News and Check for Updates option that
you can use to run NewsAlert manually.
The NewsAlert dialog will
only appear if there are unread messages to display.

| A
Note About Internet Explorer 4 |
NewsAlert makes use of IE4, and will look a
lot better if you have IE4 installed on your machine.
NewsAlert will still work without IE4, but
you won't be able to see any graphics, colours or
fonts embedded in the NewsAlert messages. |
