This almost happened to me tonight.  I clicked on
"free wifi" waiting to pick someone up at the library.
 I thought it was unusual that it said "peer to peer"
instead of "access point".

Luckily my computer is locked down pretty well.  I
usually have the server service shut off and I don't
have any disks shared.

Almost instantly, they "Free WiFi" available network
disappeared, I'm guessing because the hacker saw that
it was locked down.

Anyway, read this article, it's pretty informative.
