Yes Chris, as well as MAC address filtering (not bulletproof, but
helps). Also you should not advertise your SSID (turn it off).
   

Ok I disabled SSID Broadcast and enabled WEP.  I'm not sure how to setup MAC 
address filtering but I'll look into it.  I guess I just never expected 
anyone to connect to my wireless network besides me. 
 

Chris,
A good thumbrule for security is this: if it can be done, regardless of 
why, it will be done.  Keep that in mind anytime you set something up 
and you'll be far better off :)
