Yes.

    Commonwealth Bank of Australia is the latest Australian
    organisation to confirm it was hit today by the bug in
    McAfee's security software, which has also taken down a
    number of Coles stores and  knocked out 25 per cent of
    Virgin Mobile's PCs.

Doubtless many others, large and small.

This statement from McAfee's head of customer support was rather human too, IMO.
