You don't need a extra program, it's built into windows if you've got a wireless card/adapter built inDepending on how clued up they are, you may or may not be able to get on there internetIf it's secure, not happening.If it's open then yeh just double click it and it'll connect depending on signal strength

Basically, if you have your wireless on WEP authentication.My Ubuntu setup with a few extra tools (aircrack) can have access in 5 mins or depending on how long it takes for me to collect packets.Its not like your average user will be doing this anyways so it's not a panicking ting.But for the sake of security however, WPA+WPA2 is the way to go if you want to protect your wireless with a good password mind you.That's why most ISP's now days will send their router preconfigured with the security on and more times its WPA instead of WEP.
