Unless some sort of security is enabled (WEP, WPA, WPA2), it isn't secure. Let's @ssume that it's not secure. To answer your questions:
1. With Win2000, it's very easy. WinXP has a little more native security
2. You bet
3. A little more difficult, but your average hacker can get in and not only see what you see, but make a mess of things.
CNET (www.cnet.com) h@ssome good information on wireless security. Also, Google wireless networking and you'll get a plithora of information.
