neighbors stealing it)? i was just wondering will it make my computer harmful to things like online theives, im always jumpy when purchasing online so, will this make a difference? oh and i will need to get a new wireless router to set up a password as for some reason i got this off my cousin and its half broken and wont let me set one up!

Yes if it goes over your monthly allowance,,then you`ll be paying for it,,

yes. People who are good with computers can hack into your network.

im positive you and i both know that this question is incredibly stupid

YES! A wireless network without a password is available to anyone within range. This leaves your information open for hackers and casual users to obtain just by using your Internet signal. Next-door neighbors can also utilize your signal. THE MORE COMPUTERS USE THE SAME SIGNAL, THE SLOWER YOUR CONNECTION SPEED IS (So you're paying for your neighbors as well). Securing your connection with a password gives you the security and knowledge that your information and signal have one more layer of protection. Use a combination of letters & numbers to your password. Write it on a paper or save it on your phone in case you forget your password.

Well, yeah... DUH!!!
