last week I moved out of my apartment in the city to a rental house for a 6 week "holdover" period while my new house renovations get completed. For the first few days after moving I had to either use gprs or hop on to some anonymous doner's unsecured wireless network.
I got to thinking, even though it was very convenient for me, I could have done some serious damage to this guys systems with a simple packet sniffer or even a spam program.
The lesson is, if you run a wireless network, take 5 minutes to make sure you are running a secured, password protected network.
