Some time ago, it happened to me that my PC came out of hibernate 
without no apparent reason.

Initially I though that someone, accidentally, hit the keyboard causing 
the resume of the PC, but after disabling keyboard switch on, the 
problem persisted.

I then discovered that my network card was configured to wake up the PC 
when receiving certain kind of packets. Disabling that feature did the job.

Ciao,
		Danilo
