Re: [PLUG] Cafe Latte attack (WEP)


I was aware of that. Just didn't want to comment before I had coffee in me. I had just gotten up. Yes, I'm single and I make a point to sleep in late with the cats on Saturday. Last time I responded to someone before I had coffee in me I ended up getting talked into giving you all a talk. :) Just kidding Elizabeth.  :)

WEP is broken, busted, wi-fooy, kaput!!!! Though you could simply turn off your wireless adapter when not using it so you are not actively listening all the time.

The following product may help Windows Users, and it's even free.

This also is a windows stack issue. But I would be preaching to the choir here so I won't.
