McAfee Update killed Internet Explorer

One of our computers runs Windows. After downloading an update from McAfee this morning, its Internet Explorer stopped being able to connect to the Internet. After some searching, I found an announcement on McAfee's Technical Support page. (For some reason the announcement did not show up the first time I looked at the page, but after refreshing the page, it showed up.) The announcement includes instructions on how to correct the problem. The fix requires you to uninstall and reinstall McAfee which is time consuming, but not difficult.
