The McAfee install did alert me to the fact that the HP discs had loaded some Norton stuff which was a potential conflict, so I uninstalled that stuff. Never alerted me of any other conflicts, and everything installed just fine and ran just fine. No problems, I was online.

Until Windows DLed those 64 updates.

It bothers me, too, that it isn't just not letting me online, it's actually crashing IE.

Again, the PC is at home, I'm at work. I figured I'd pick your brains, as I can't actually do anything about it until I get home tonight. If I can't configure it to be workable I will definitely be uninstalling it and going from there.
