There has been reported cases were WiFi has been set up in a hot zone. Then a bandit captures all the important info, hence steals your ID. In the old days there were reported cases of capturing the print out signals al producing cheques and cashing before the real ones were distributed. The US Congress passed a law that no receiver could receive cell phones (cell phone blocked etc), but that does not stop those who so want to. So what I am saying is, be very careful when using wireless, you donot know who can receive it. Chris
