Well if this has happened to you — and it has happened to me, you want to check out this article which explains how Microsoft’s ad-hoc network setttings and the irresistable idea of getting free WiFi combine to spread an SSID which causes lots of wasted time.

The good news is if we all stop clicking on this SSID, it will eventually go away.
