Also, could you please address the wallet issue with OpenSSL and let us know what version of the lib you used and if a new update is in the works if needed?  It doesn't come across well to not comment on this especially when bitcoin forum has had a "news alert" at the top of the forum for a while now concerning this.

From what he said so far, it doesn't sound that vulnerable. But he will create a new build soon. See below.

The issue mostly applies to bitcoin-0.9.0, especially if you've used the payment protocol.

With Heavycoin you are vulnerable only if you set the rpcssl command-line option.  If it is not set, then no immediate action is required.  Otherwise, if you set rpcssl and if an attacker could have possibly communicated with the RPC port, then you should consider your wallet to be compromised.

Regardless, we will announce new builds soon.
