Re: [Amc-list] Completely OT: wireless networks

["Bruce Griffis" <bruce.griffis@xxxxxxxxx>]

The person that scammed wireless just visited Facebook, Google, Skype,
a BBC newsfeed and legends.tabletsofdestiny,com (Power Rangers!
Cool!). Most of it was profile.ak.facebook.com - I guess checking out
profiles at Facebook. Nothing nefarious.

We've had discussions of Internet usage, downloading music and
chatting with strangers. All the kids have their own laptop (one
college kid, one kid wrapped up some virtual highschool classes and
one kid is doing middle school online) - so I'm not too concerned
about kids hacking my work laptop up.

Anyway, if it was the tax man, it must not be a fun job. Could just be
a neighbor. Still, I enabled security and am considering supressing
ssid broadcast. I guess if I were to check the logs, I'd find myself
spending too much time discussing AMCs!
