System admins upgraded to get a vulnerable Hearbleed server: https://vivaldi.net/en/blogs/entry/heartbleed-status-upgrading-to-heartbreak
link article author =  Yngve Pettersen
Worse still that only 14 % of secure website admins were capable of coping with three step securing properly against Heartbreak: http://news.netcraft.com/archives/2014/05/09/keys-left-unchanged-in-many-heartbleed-replacement-certificates.html

All the more reason to update to something more secure than Windows XP
If you're still using XP, then at least change to a more secure browser like Chrome or Firefox

More on the eBay disaster.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/internet-security/10849689/eBay-hacking-online-gangs-are-after-you.html

Quote
Up to 233 million people have had their personal details stolen – their telephone numbers, their names, their postal and email addresses, their dates of birth and the passwords to their accounts. Of those 233 million, 15 million were eBay customers in Britain.
