That wouldn't have helped if you used a compromised service before the announcement of the SSL defect, Norton would have just said, "Open SSL? You're good buddy, go on in and enjoy this site, it's 'Safe'!" Because SSL is the Encryption that makes the website "Safe" the problem is the security had a flaw, so Norton is about as useful as a brick in knowing if your information was leaked from any site that you visited and logged into in the past few weeks.
