Most microwaves (especially old ones) are shielded very poorly. However microwave radiation is nonionizing so the only harm it is going to do to you is burns if you get hit by enough of it. Needless to say you aren't going to get hit by that much no matter how poorly shielded your microwave is. The worst any consumer microwave will do is screw up your wifi reception around it.
