But you couldn't since mine is locked down.
Think about this. Some wifi spots are in reality HONEY POTS. It is now possible to setup a rogue hot-spot that is malicious in nature.
That is, it collects information you may pass back and forth such as name, passwords to email and other accounts. There is also the possibility of such to install TROJAN KEYBOARD LOGGERS.
-> At least somebody has warned you of such behavior today.

When I'm on the road, the first thing I check when entering a hotel room is whether there is a unprotected broadband signal that I can catch a ride on.
As I write this, I'm in Boston and riding a new wave. I'm wondering whether the average broadband user can detect my hookup to his/hers network. Also, how much risk is there that they can also access my hard drive when I'm hooked up to their system?
