WiFi is safe of course. All you to do is put an encryption to your broadband connection so that other won't easily go through your connection. You use WEP / WPA for encryption and use Alphanumeric in doing it for a best and better solution.

I don't think that there is any problem with the safety of Wi-Fi. I had been using Wi-FDi for some time and i have not faced any problem.

Can anyone tell is there any safety problem with Wi-Fi....

Wi-Fi is safe. Everything is protected on your PC and no one can acess your computer without your approval. There is no such problem with Wi-Fi until somone hacks in your Wi-Fi network.
