What machine is it you have ?
If it is a Advent machine purchased from PCWorld\Dixons\Currys they did have some probs and were waiting for a bios update but only affected specific motherboards..

Look in your BIOS settings (usually Advanced Settings or similar). See if you have options for "Wake up on Call/Modem".

defo in the BIOS this one.
When starting the PC hold the DEL key. This will take you to the BIOS screen. Then, as mentioned look for the wake on call/ring and disable it.

If it's powered off, then the Operating System isn't loaded. So, unless the Operating Systems is in suspend (or sleep) mode, then it must be the BIOS setting that's waking the PC up.
Keep looking through the BIOS setting for mention of power on or something similar.
