are you looking to make wampserver accessible over the internet?
if not make sure there is a black padlock in the middle of the wamp tray icon
this can be removed/added by cleft click>put server ON/OFF-LINE
Offline means it cannot be access from outside.
Online means it can provided the router is setup to allow port 80 to be forawrd to that machine.
The internet runs on port 80 , so its really as secure as your computer is against hackers in the first place with out the server...
the only issue is you may have details, username, emails, password stored for your website which could be of risk , just as personal photos and files on ur pc may be.
MOST importantly make sure a firewall is enabled in your router and is UP TO DATE. alot of people never update theirs at all
