I really don't care if they are unsecured or not...just use it when you need to. Skype has built in security, so you should be OK there.

On a side note, Skype will work great while you're over there. It'll be hella cheap when you're calling back to the states and you'll sound like you're right next to the person. My boss was just in the Netherlands and people came up to me to ask where he was and when I told them they almost didn't believe me.
He means as long as the wifi networks are unsecured Not that a WEP-secured network is a problem, it only takes about 3 minutes to crack most WEP passwords, but it's just as much of a hassle to carry a laptop with a copy of aircrack on it. Skype will be cheap for US calls If you're going to be talking to people who may have Skype anyway, skype-to-skype calls are free.
