Yup ... used to leave mine open and found a couple of kids who go to Henry
Beaufort School not far from me sitting the other side of my garden wall
happily browsing away on a laptop.

I then changed my SSID and turned off SSID broadcasts on my Belkin AP
(which
did the trick) but I recently changed to a NetGear AP which doesn't appear
to have that option so I now restrict access by MAC address. :-(
