We really would need more information.
Do you mean you see their computer in Network Neighborhood?
Or do you see their wireless network in the configuration utility for a wireless LAN card (such as Intel PROSet/Wireless for their PRO/Wireless WLAN chipsets)? Unless a wireless access point allows the administrator to disable SSID broadcasts (some do, such as Cisco APs), secure access points will show in any scan for nearby access points but you won't be able to connect to them without the proper password/key.
I'm assuming you're talking about a wireless network here.
