Will updating my firmware unroot my phone?

    I rooted my Vodafone Smart II (Alcatel v860) Android 2.3.7 some time ago using Uniflash 1.2 and renaming a recovery.zip file to update.zip and it is now telling me there is a firmware update available.

    Will updating the firmware undo my rooting or have any other negative side effects?
