Dangers of wireless networks left open:
Source: http://www.googobits.com/articles/p3-1618-protecting-your-wireless-network.html
"Leaving your wireless network open for others to infiltrate not only grants access to the internet, but also to any files stored on or shared over the network. Anyone who accesses that network can open any file, download their contents, and save it to their computer—all without you knowing it. That means personal information such as bank accounts, credit card numbers, identification records, or even customer data if your business uses unsecured wireless networks are free game.
Open wireless networks also provide a playground for more nefarious activities. Less than honest wardrivers could access your network to download or upload any files. These files could contain anything from child pornography to terrorist threats to hate literature. They could send out thousands of spam messages and viruses, or access any website without fear of being caught. The sky is the limit. And the icing on the cake—for the wardriver—is that the activity cannot be tracked back to him or her. It will, however, be tracked back to the network owner. If that’s not enough to raise an eyebrow in concern, consider that if a message containing a threat against the president is traced back to your access point, you could be fined and sentenced to a five year prison term—whether you wrote that message or not."

Many people are finding themselves getting really worried about the many wireless options out that and not feeling protected.
Over time I've discovered as long as you take the time to keep yourself protected by using secured connections, having an extensive amount of passwords throughout all the things you utilize and not leaving a mass document with all your passowrds and usernames on your computer the security of going wireless shouldn't be too worrisome.
I enjoy having the benefits of being wireless just about everywhere, especially with being a freelancer. Protecting yourself is key and having anti-virus, spamware programs can really help...
