>   I did learn something in that the difference in WEP and WPA was an 8 byte
MIC and that there was no difference in encryption algorithm e.g. RC4 using
XOR to facilliate the use of existing hardware, it was well put but  I think
the amount of acronymic references within the sentences would lose the
layman, if analogies were used it would reach a wider audience and ensure a
better understanding (only my opinion here). Anyway it was a good
informative post.
