Re: [A/S] A WiFi question



One thing I might add; I understand that by using a wireless connection, 
anyone else (hackers) has the ability to "connect" to your computer.  I am new to 
this, so am not an "expert".  I understand that some or most of the antivirus 
software has an option, sometimes at additional cost, that acts as a 
"firewall" to keep others from gaining access to your actions or to your computer while 
you are connected through a WiFi wireless connection.  Without a firewall, 
hackers can get your passwords you use to gain access to a secure sites.
