Hmmmm....I remember something called that internet that is also quite
insecure.
ah, firewalls. where for out thou firewalls.

I love viruses like blast and sassier. It shows just how many people
don't click the little firewall check box.
If people don't add any sort of security when connecting to the internet,
how could you expect that they would enable any sort of security on their
wireless network.
