It's always good practice to periodically change your passwords and the Heartbleed bug is an impetus for all to do just that. However rushing to change all of your passwords may not be the best tactic just now. Advice from commentators on the bug say that unless a site has verified that it has patched the vulnerability, you're just going to have to change password for the site again. Attending to the Heartbleed bug needs a systematic approach. Check whether the site may have been vulnerable and whether it has patched the vulnerability. Then set a reminder to check daily? weekly? for when other sites you access via password have patched the vulnerability.
Richard Nieva in a cnet article, 'Heartbleed Bug: What you need to know (FAQ)' advises that passwords should be changed, with the proviso '... BUT wait until you get confirmation from the Web site operator that the bug has been patched. It's a natural reaction to want to change all of your passwords immediately, but if the Web site's bug has not been fixed yet, making the change could be useless -- you're just potentially giving an attacker your new password.' Find Cnet's list of sites that have patched the vulnerability HERE Many other sites also offer helpful information about the Heartbleed bug.
