Subject: [SECURITY] Firesheep/Cain& Able

In light of the recent attention to "Firesheep" I am wondering if anyone is having issues and how they are addressing?
When used in conjunction with "Cain&Able" it appears able to sniff both wired and wireless traffic for login 
credentials and execute ARP Poisoning.
