Nothing is better than WEP. No, really. Or, put another way,
everything, including no 'security' at all, is better than WEP.

Nope, it's not even going to stop them. The only person it will stop
is someone who is in "Oh sh*t I need a connection" mode and is
driving around looking for something so he can send an email to his
boss and keep his job. Anyone who is actively looking for
connections can get through your Web in minutes, at most.
