Hi all,

i establish a wireless peer to peer network at home. however, i'm afraid
that if anyone has a wireless card, he will be able to access my computers.
so, can we use password protect or anything else to protect my computers?

btw: my computer is Windows XP and Windows 2000.and the XP act as a ics host
to share my internet connection.
