Reset your router, change it's internal IP, change it's SSID, then don't broadcast your SSID

Once you have given your friends the WEP key that is it, they can use your network whenever they like without having to enter it every time. I would seriously recommend you use some form of encryption. at the moment someone can read everything being sent over your wireless network including confidential things like passwords.
