ThreatSense.NET question

Just have a question regarding the new ThreatSense feature.

The blurb in the Eset brochure says:

"ThreatSense.NET extends the power of ThreatSense’s powerful analytics on a global scale. NOD32 system can automatically (or manually) submit samples of new suspected malware to threat lab researchers for analysis. ESET clients receive notification of new malware outbreaks and tips on how to protect themselves via this feedback loop as well. Globally collected information and statistics are made available online at ThreatSense.NET"

How are ESET clients notified of new malware outbreaks and given tips on protecting themselves? is this just via the website, or is there something else to it?

The notification is provided via Eset's website. The sentence means that in the event of an outbreak the appropriate signature is picked up, an update is issued immediately and a description of the malware is added on Eset's website as soon as possible.
