Hotel internet security

If I'm staying at a hotel with wireless access or wired if it makes a difference.

I have connectify on my laptop. Would that make my other wireless devices running through my laptop secure?

I also have Firefox portable on my thumb drive. That do anything?

And I use lastpass.

Any off these things keep prying eyes out of my stuff?

Turn off file sharing and make sure you are connected to the hotel network and not a spoof of it.

I was concerned about the hotel spying.

Also wondered if Connectify would hide my
Keystrokes and on-line activities.

The only way to really guarantee that the hotel, or someone else with a wireless nearby can't spy (not saying they are spying) is to set up an encrypted VPN and tunnel in to it for all of your web activity.

Woot for SSH!
