My heart dropped into the pit of my stomach when the first news of the Heartbleed Bug.  I had literally just logged into my Intermountain Gas, Idaho Power and bank accounts to pay some bills only to hear that an encryption service that over 2/3 of websites use was being attacked by hackers that could steal log-ins, passwords and credit card information.  They say on a scale from 1-10 of how catastrophic this bug could be to the internet, this rates at an 11!  So what passwords do you absolutely need to change?

According to a list compiled Mashable some of the most popular websites that you absolutely need to change your passwords on are:

  • Twitter
  • Tumblr
  • Google and Gmail
  • Yahoo and Yahoo Mail
  • GoDaddy
  • Dropbox
  • OKCupid
  • Soundcloud
