Connecting Your Laptop Safely

I am very careful about which wireless network I connect to.  I just read an interesting article about this topic at http://reviews.cnet.com/9602-12576_7-0.html?messageID=2510978&tag=nl.e410 .  This article has some good advice, which one day might save your hide.

Remember, if you have a wireless router, you need to secure it.  If you do not, anyone can enter and do anything they want.  The FBI and the RCMP might come and visit you if this happens.  You will have some explaining to do then.  So play it safe and lock it down.

Have a good weekend all.
