A technical flaw has been detected in wi-fi cards and switching them on in public places can expose you to hacker attacks. Dell, so far have offered upgrades and patches why others have been helpless.

Be careful when you visit airports and other wi-fi hotspots. If you use Win XP, then you are in double trouble!

Linux and other Unix derivatives are not usually open to a lot of threats, that's just why I love it in the first place.
