It isn't clear what you are seeing. Is this just an *available* adhoc
network appearing in network-manager? This just means that there is
someone nearby advertising their PC as an ad-hoc network. It is then up
to you to decide if you want to connect to them.
I strongly suspect that all it was was someone advertising their
PC (not another WiFi network). There is no evidence they obtained access.
I am moving to WPA as we speak. All other measures have been implemented
so I feel much more secure now.
Thanks to all for the great advice.
