Yeah, I know. I chucked the comment in to see if it would cause a fuss.

I don't expect to get many people wandering around with a laptop running 
  net stumbler where I live, and if my neighbours want to practice their 
l33t skills, then fair play to them.

I'll get sorted at some point, honest.

p.s - if I catch any of you monkeys outside my house with a wifi pda, 
I'll set my neighbours cat on you.
