Security Experts Warn on Wireless

WASHINGTON (AP) - Business travelers eager to plug
their laptop computers into wireless Internet networks
cropping up at hotels, airports and coffee shops need
to be on guard: their e-mail and Web browsing can be
easily intercepted, security experts warn.

The problem, they say, is that these new networks,
which charge an hourly fee for wireless access to the
Internet, aren't protected by encryption and are
vulnerable to hackers.

``When you sit in an airport and use your laptop you
might as well be broadcasting to anyone within
listening distance,'' said Jason Sewell, a digital
forensics specialist at security firm Predictive
Systems.
