I was in a McDonald's today in Nashua, NH which offered to get me on the internet via WiFi as cheap as $2.95.

I'm a cheap bastard and will never pay to connect. The restaurant is just down the hill from a large apartment complex and guess what happened when I enabled WiFi on my PDA sitting in my car in the parking lot with my Filet O' Fish?

Everyone needs to change their default Linksys password, or whatever, and enable WEP. I find unprotected WiFi networks all the time. It's way too easy and I'm not even a geek.

Hey! Please don't tell people about their "unsecured" networks, I, too find it very convenient to use other people's wi-fi when I travel- Shshshshshshshs...
