    Hey everybody...

    I want to know if it's possible for a business that operates a wireless network to be able to actually monitor every single communication that comes into or goes out of their wireless network? I'm talking right down to every alphabetic character in this message. Is that possible? Standard?

    Thanks,
    +Q__

    yes

    but it would be realy hard because of the large amout of information.

    There is a scary little program that demonsrates that, It will monitor a wireless network and show all the images that get send.

    edit: probably not common practice though because of how hard it would be to actualy read that much information. If you want to see what your computer is actualy sending on the internet, try the program called ethereal.
