No, it's not about getting strip-searched at LAX. My wife and I have
an
Airport network at home for our two computers - it works flawlessly
(Time
Warner is another matter). The other day our next-door neighbor
mentioned
that her computer detected our Airport's name. I've heard of
neighbors or
even people passing by in cars being able to lock onto the Airport
signal
and use it to gain Internet access. Since our neighbor mentioned
this,
I've been a little concerned about our computers' security. Is this
something to worry about? If so, what can be done about it? I've
considered setting up a Master Password and activating FileVault, but
don't know if this would address the problem...if there is a problem.

Thanks very much.

What does this have to do with Entourage?

Oh. Hmmm. Good question. Didn't notice. Sorry. Forget I said anything.
Delete
it.

Unfortunately, since this is Usenet, there is no way to delete it. What
you post here is here until the end of time (or at least until the end
of Usenet - whichever comes first). ; )

What happened is that I got such terrific help here on dealing with Entourage
spam that I kind of blindly waded back in not noticing the forum's only for
Entourage, not other Mac issues. Thanks for the...

It happens. : )

hey! you're one of the guys
who helped me so much! The spam filters are working perfectly, no spam is
getting through to my inbox at all, and when I tell it to run schedule, it
actually does it! Thank you again VERY much.

Don't mention it. : )
