    I changed my Facebook password, but I use 2-step verification for Google, so I shouldn't be that bad. Also, my bank said that their customers' info is safe, too.

      Note that even if you change your password, if a site has not replaced their certificate yet, it is potentially still vulnerable to someone capturing the traffic and decrypting it.

        For the record, I checked with our Admins/techs -- this site is NOT affected by Heartbleed; neither is Fratching.

          Thanks for the list! I'm not on most of those sites. I already changed my PayPal password even though it says it's not a problem. Still need to change my Yahoo and Google ones, but I don't use them much anyway and never for anything connected to my bank account.
          When you start at zero, everything's progress.

            Just changed over my Facebook account. Had already changed Yahoo a few days ago after I received a prompt to do so.

            Now off to change the Google password . . .
