Re: Hmmm

You my friend live life with a false sense of security.

Any wireless connection (secured or not) can be accessed. The tools available for anyone even a Script Kiddie make it quite an easy task.

I agree with the first post that you need to secure your computer for all access points, airports and the like.

A very difficult task for you Windoze users

If you have good running firewall logging at your home network, in the event that someone does abuse your network (pedophiles,torrent users...) you can prove with the logs who had the ip and what they did.

To make it simple, it's not bad to secure your AP but dont think you are secure. SECURE YOUR DATA and PC. Ever heard of encryption for sensitive data.
