It's reasons like this I've always used a secure proxy when connected on a public LAN, wifi or not. Some options you have to keep your connection secure: * SSH tunnels * HTTPS/OpenSSL tunnels * TOR * Freenet * I2P * OpenVPN Sometimes, it's more than just bypassing restrictive firewalls, it's also preventing attackers from doing anything successful with your private data. And when using a public computer, I use portable tools on a thumb drive, and always browse in private mode with my browser. http://portableapps.com.
