Cracking WEP on neighbors' router with malicious intent does not happen often.
It's better to use more secure technology, but most of the time WEP is ok.
Some people actually run wireless routers without encryption at all (and that was a blessing for me when I just moved into new place and was waiting for few days until cable company's technician showed up).
