Hi I'm a brand new Wi Fi user so please bear with me

If I use my laptop in a public space and my PC can connect to public unsecured networks is that safe to use? If I visit websites where I have to give my log in details is that openly transmitted. On my laptop I'm using the latest Norton Security Suite with the standard Vista Firewall switched on as usual.

Thankyou!
