whoah... so why they are still promoting this kind of service? if this is a real threat in security, this should not be supported.. who wants to get hacked or invaded by strangers? not me..

wifi is just like any internet/network connection. Itsa protocol for transferring data between two nodes.
wifi can be as secure or unsecure as any other network connection.
u must install a firewall (default in windows xp sp2 and above) and an antivirus (avg is free) to stay safe..
wifi jindabaad!
