Why the rush?

If you are not sharing your files (with file sharing), Mac OS is 
notoriously hard to hack into. Worse that happens if someone hacks into 
your wireless is they get free internet. big deal, even a community 
nicety in some cases. ;-)

My network is relatively open. I have wireless, a "G" network which is 
closed (does not broadcast its ID, so you need to know its name to logon 
but no password), and a "B" network which is wide open. Someone driving 
by can get on the internet with it easily,. All my shared volumes require 
modestly complex passwords. (nothing critical on them, its a home, after 
all!)

If all you are doing is broadcasting an internet connection, without file 
sharing, the worst is someone gets on your internet connection and uses 
up some bandwidth. In most cases, why care? I appreciate the people in 
the town center who leave their connections open, so I can do email while 
I am down there. ;-)
