I guess only static arp-routes and personal firewall will help you....or if
you contacting one of your offices VPN would be great....actually I don't
even know what to say else....it's tooooo public wi-fi....

I need some advice.
I'm currently staying in an apartment complex that provides free
wireless Internet access.
The access has zero crypto - not even WEP.

What can I do on my own Laptops (Mac OS X and Windows XP Pro) to make
my browsing/internet usage more secure? I also want to ensure that no
one else on the network is entering my systems.

The Windows Laptop already has Kaspersky Internet Security and various
spyware/adware checkers etc

Thanks,
ys
