I have a wireless home network, and was wondering if there was any way to make sure that someone on another computer with a wireless card does not accidently 'tap in' to my computer by catching the signal. I've heard of this happening to other people, just curious to get more details...
Thanks.

you could always use encription. you can do this by going into your wireless setup screen. that way, no one can use your signal without a key.
