If you are a single computer or multiple computer, I recommend using a router. If you get a wireless router, then TURN ON the Wireless Security. On each computer, you can protect it further with the simplest firewall, such as the Windows Firewall the comes with Windows XP with SP2 or the free version that comes from Zone Alarm at http://www.zonelabs.com



Good luck and Happy Computing!

use a firwall like zonealarm
Someone might be able to accept your network if your on a wireless connection and you didn't make it a secure network.
