If you have a WiFi (wireless) router at home or at your business, it is extremely important that you make sure it is password protected to prevent unauthorized use of your internet connection. It could also save you a lot of time and heartbreak.

An article posted on NaplesNews.com this weekend tells the story of a Naples, Florida family that was falsely accused of downloading child pornography after a neighbor gained access to their unsecured wireless network. Read their story at http://www.naplesnews.com/news/2010/apr/24/pawn-porn-scheme-naples-family-falsely-suspected-c/.

It only takes a few minutes to secure your network and, in most cases, it is extremely easy to do. Refer to your wireless router user manual or manufacturer's website for instructions.
