although WEP is pretty weak, its better than nothing. i have network shares that are pretty open and i am not yet ready to let anybody into the network. better a weak fence that i know is weak rather than nothing at all. :) and nobody in my block is techie enough to leech much yet use a wireless connection. my neighbor thinks all computers are good for are spreadsheets, printmaster is the ultimate graphics program and a flash disk is a hard drive. :) ciao! -- "Programming, an artform that fights back" Anuerin G.
