Is it possible for my roomate to acess my computer through our wireless connection

Well I moved into a house and its setup with a wireless network. Apparently one of my other roommates decided to take liberty of taking over the router and he added a password to it. I'm not too familiar with any type of networking but I was just wondering if he could access my computer and the files on it. Hes the type to report suspicous activity to the landlord and since she and I don't get along, will probably find some grounds to kick me out...I'm only here because its so cheap 🙂
 
It is possible, but you need to be a little careless. If Windows XP, that would mean File and Print services are running, you don't have SP2, you don't have a firewall, you don't have the latest Windows Updates, you don't have a password on your account and admin/owner.
