PowerShell to Update Alerts in SharePoint

Was reading Mikes post about Alerts not working in SharePoint 2010 and decided to convert his code to PowerShell.  Read Mikes post before running this script….

$SiteCollection = Get-SPSite "http://YourSharePointSite/"

foreach ($subSite in $SiteCollection.AllWebs)
	{
		foreach($alrt in $subSite.Alerts)
			{
				$origTitle = $alrt.Title
                                $alrt.Title = "UPDATE: $origTitle"
                                $alrt.Update()

                                $alrt.Title = $origTitle
                                $alrt.Update()
				Write-Host $alrt.Title
			}
		$subSite.Dispose()
	}

$SiteCollection.Dispose()
