If you have Vista it should be pretty obvious from what I've seen. If you have XP you'd start by going to Control Panel and selecting Network Connections and go from there letting the Networking Wizard guide you through.

Obviously you will need an internet connection and a wireless router. Other wireless networks you detect will be using wireless encryption protected by a password.
