Saw an item of CBC talking about a woman in her hotel room using the wifi who received a phone call from someone in the hotel bar telling her she had better close her file sharing and get off the wifi right away because he could see all her info including bank accounts, passport info etc which she had on her laptop. &nbsp;How do you shut off file sharing? &nbsp;I always use hotel and ship wifi and often they warn you that others could see your stuff. &nbsp;What do you recommend in order to prevent this problem.<br />
Thanks,<br />
