on a freebee wifi internet connection like one found in barns&nobel or something, is there any way of finding out who is on line? when I connect to a wireless wifi internet connection somewhere what information does my computer send out? -Computer not registered -Computer name not specific

But if the network or wifi internet doesn't have a good server meaning security and stuff people with the right tools could get more information than just you computer's name
