This is serious stuff, it's like wrong identity but taken to the extreme you could be a suspect for some serious offences.

It wasn't WEP. It was a network with no security.
Must admit that WEP is so easy to crack.

None of them are any different. You can use a sniffer for any of them honestly. But most people dont know how to use one, or even where to begin to look for one.

I was told at College that WPA is alot more secure to use than WEP so this is what I use.
No idea why though
