There is no easy answer: It depends. If you are worried about the safety of your information, do not type in sensitive information (such as credit card numbers, bank passWords, etc.) on an unsecured network. Unsecured networks are the ones that do not require a passWord, and anyone can get access to them. Most secure wireless networks feature some type of encryption, which makes it harder for hackers to get hold of your information. Currently, the best encryption is WPA2. You can check the type of encryption you are using by going into your connection properties. Upgrading to WPA2 may require a new router or wireless adapter. Keep in mind that just because you are using a secure network with WPA2 encryption at home doesn't mean everyone else is--try not to enter private information on public networks. No wireless network is completely safe, but the best ones are pretty close. Also, if your are concerned about safety and privacy, you should purchase a good security suite to prevent hackers from gainng access to your computer--and your information.
