Keith,
Depending on how worried you want to be about others having
access to your internet account, you would probably want to be
sure that you:

1. have a firewall program installed on the network;

2. look into having the wireless network encripted.

Otherwise it can be possible for casual passers by with wireless
networks on their handhelds etc. to have at your account, and
possibly even your computers.

Sorry I don't know details about these kinds of settups, and
maybe you're in an area where such urban chaos isn't a big issue.

luck
