For 817 sites on mine only 4 are potentially affected.

I tested a few sites - so for i have found gumtree is vulnerable
http://filippo.io/Heartbleed/ - this test is a bit unrelaible as often it comes back with 'something went wrong' - for example it seems quite hard to repeat the gumtree is vulnerable report
So if a website comes back with 'soemthing went wrong' do not assume it is not vulnerable0 -
Its reporting
All good, https://www.gumtree.com seems fixed or unaffected!Drinking Rum before 10am makes you

What banks are safe? Why are none of them making any reference or announcement on their sites?
Just received an e- mail fromCoventry Building Society saying their site is safe.0 -
No need to panic over this. All the banking websites ive seen dont have the exploit anyway.
And remember this has been exploitable for 2 years now. Chances are if anyone was exploiting it on a mass scale we would know about it by now0 -

Exactly and despite all the publicity there are no reports of anyone being hacked due to Heartbleed, as far as I know. The point of the publicity was to inform of the vulnerability, most of the main players seemed to have fixed or were unaffected.No need to panic over this.
