If you've been watching the news lately you'd see that some sick people are 
stealing wireless Internet access to traffic despicable content.  If your 
wireless network is used unbeknownst to you for these purposes, you may find 
yourself unwittlingly caught up in the mess.  Knowing how to block 
unauthorized access to your wireless LAN should be an urgent matter.  
Accessing a wireless LAN without authorization is becoming criminalized more 
widely.  More education in this area is needed.

Now use your right hand to draw the number "6" in the air.
