@secdrive They're more expensive that the option we suggested and we have no experience with them, but thanks for the update / insight.

Honestly I haven't been able test that Firesheep out but I can almost bet that thing won't protect you very much on a WEP Network or any network that is not yours for that matter. Just because the network is "Secure" that mean people still cant hack you if you don't run the network you cant trust it I recommend a VPN when using ANY wireless network that is not yours.

@PhiberOptics Security always good / never bad. However, when you're on an open network (as too many are too often) it's just easy easy easy to get hacked.

Blah i just wanted to correct myself I didn't mean Cain & Able is better then firefox i ment it was better then firesheep busy installing stuff on a clients computer that be firefox so i had firefox on my mind at the time I said what i said.

@eMarketingVids Please you don't need to tell me anything I been War Driving for years and Firesheep is nothing compared to Cain & Able is. Firesheep will be the new script kiddie program if you ask any of the people who are going to be downloading Firesheep how it operates and what its doing they'd have no ideal how to reply. Cain & Able is way better then Firefox.
