Hi all:
Alan and I just came from having breakfast and we hooked up with a network engineer. What a fascinating hour we spent. I picked his brain. I told him I want to get a laptop and I told him I learned about routers (Linkskeys is a good one he said). He then said "do you know that once you have a wi-fi thing going on in your home, anybody from outside can use your wireless network.?? I said "I didn't know that". He then said "I use Network Magic, I downloaded it for $30 from the internet, and it tells you when someone is using your wi fi. I said "really?" He said "when you hook up your laptop, and you are all up and running, you go to your computer, you click on the icon NETWORK MAGIC, you click on where it indicates any unauthorized users, and you will see up on the screen, their user ID." I said "that's fantastic". That's when Alan said "you lost me when you started talking about WI FI". We got hysterical. I understood the guy completely. I just wanted to find out if any of you have used this software program. Thanks much, Melody http://www.networkmagic.com/nmlp/hom...2Ri-B7OUhi3jos
