There are lots of definitions depending on what you're talking about piggybacking. Carrying someone else on your shoulders is the usual definition. Something that immediately follows something else could be said to be piggybacking. Getting access to a restricted communications channel by using someone else's open session is called piggybacking. Increasing memory capacity by soldering chips on top of other chips is piggybacking. When a stockbroker makes a trade on a personal account following a trade for a customer, assuming the customer is acting on inside information - this, too, is called piggybacking. There are too many to describe them all here!

piggybacking in security terms is defined as gaining unauthorized access by using someone else who is authorized to gain access. i.e. someone uses a security access card to open a door and a thief gets through the door before it closes, this would be a good example of piggybacking in security circles, this can be mitigated with the use of a "mantrap"

Hi, perhaps you can try Norton or Mcafee to prevent the piggyhacking, but you should pay for the software.

i also recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar, which can disable the virus, becasue the virus can only run on IE.

firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and spywareware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.

firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.

download firefox for free:

Given this area of discussion I would assume you're talking about the illegal access to the Internet from another's wireless connection.
It is theft of services and you can be prosecuted for it.
