Question Linksys WRT54g Router Security?

I have set up the Linksys wireless router for use on my PC and for my XBOX 360. I currently have no security setup on the wireless router but seen the options. I do not know what option would work best to keep my network secure. Can anyone help me? I dont need crazy protection, I dont have really nothing important, but to keep away from prying eyes. I do have Firewall software and stuff.
Thanks for any suggestions.

There is WEP and WPA. WPA is a much stonger form of encryption, and I would recommed using that. All the info should be in the manuals you got with the router.... if you don't have them, you can find them on the Linksys webpage by selecting your model from the list.
