I went to my cousin's house and when I see if there any connections. I saw this guy's connection and he didn't enable security. I connect to the internet with his router signal.

Are there any risk to there?
 
risk? sure, other than you feeling like a thief for stealing a part of his internet connection.. lol. if he sees your pc on his network and knows how to hack(unlikely since he is probably just an average joe that didnt even know how to prevent you from using his wireless), but if he were evil, he could hack your pc for using his wireless signal since you are on his network now, put viruses on your pc, steal stuff from you. etc..
 
Well to you there is a risk if your own PC is unsecured. For example, if you have default shared folders setup and possibly have no main logon password, he could probably access your files. But chances are, you don't need to worry about him, you need to worry about other people like you who may have gotten on his wireless network for more mischievous reasons than browsing.
 
Wireless Not secure, some one leeching, and using the Internet for illegal purposes.:shocked:

Whom you think the FBI would come to?:brokenheart:

But never the less.

Happy New Year:wine:
