WiFi happiness

Ignore the rant below. I came home after work, and booted my new laptop to play with it. Windows comes up and there's this lovely little popup notifying me that i am now conneceted to the internet wirelessly. I did not even touch the darn network settings, i did not do anything. My laptop just connected.

I guess somebody in the neighborhood has a wireless LAN and they don't have any security features enabled on it. The sygnal is very weak, but when it's there, it's really quick.

Now, i will research what the community verdict is on using other people's wifi. I don't intend to use it for downloading 1gig movies, so i hope whoever blessed me with this connection doesn't mind. I have no idea how to even try finding out where this is coming from...

Any thoughts on whether this is a big no-no, or not, please share in the comments!
