Security update could affect online license buyers

Security update could affect online license buyers

By Pennsylvania Game Commission

Some internet users might be unable to buy their 2018-19 Pennsylvania hunting licenses online due to an upcoming internet security update.

The update affects all purchasing websites, not just the Pennsylvania Automated Licensing System, and users of older-model computers are impacted most because many of these systems will be unable to make online purchases of any kind once the update is complete.

Newer computers largely won’t be affected, though users might need to install updated versions of operating systems and web browsers.

The easiest way to determine whether your computer will be capable of making internet purchases once the update is complete is by checking here to test your system.

If your machine passes the test, it should be good to go in making future online purchases, including buying a hunting license.

Licenses for the 2018-19 license year went on sale June 18.

Buying licenses as soon as they go on sale increases a hunter’s chances of securing a Deer Management Assistance Program permit for properties where few permits are available.
