Internet question:What can a person do to protect themselves from "Heartbleed? - 666 - 05-20-2014 05:49 PM

I read about the openSSL problem today called "Heartbleed" how can a person make sure they remain safe and the problem is repaired. If it has gotten your information before the breech was found what can you do. Does anyone have any consumer information on things the layman can do to, instead of just waiting on the sites to beef the security protocols?

I've heard people say to change your passwords and some say to not worry about it and that Heartbleed isn't affecting places like Google, Facebook, Dropbox among other spots.
