I accidentally disconnected from my wireless network this morning and while reconnecting using the search for available networks, I noticed that 9 networks of my neighbors were visible from my home computer. Five of them were unsecured, at least according to the laptop connection wizard. I went online and read up on a coincidently topical article on the CNN/Money website. So if you can, secure your network, I have not heard of this problem in Round Lake, but on the other hand we should all be careful.
Currently training for the Chicago Marathon in October 2015. Enjoy my running diary. Sidenote:I was the first mayor in the United states to write an everyday blog, although I am no longer a mayor this is that blog.
