    I don't have a problem with this personally but dh says it is theft and someone was successfully prosecuted for it recently.....

    I do agree with dh, but also someone on wireless who doesn't pay any attention to security and encryption etc. is an idiot who is bound to get taken for a mug. I'm not saying it's right, just that it's inevitable. Although if it was me I would still be furious!

    I take it the source isn't one of the 'public' hubs in London (maybe elsewhere too, not very up on these things).

    Can I join in? I haven't done competitions for a long time. I'd like to be able to cover my £14.99 internet costs per month. I normally spend my time on OS but it would be nice to get out once in a while :D
    Enjoying an MSE OS life :D

    It would be great to have other signatures to look at and see how people are getting along.
