| 323336 | 2005-02-09 22:24:00 | After 12 months in this location and using a WXP SP2; IE6 and Dial Up modem to paradise, I suddenly find this week that every time I touch a phone my computer turns on. Altho all my settings are configured for shutdown I cant prevent it from turning on w/out turning the off button on the back of the puta. At first I thought it was some proximity crossing problem, but find that any phone in the house - on 3 floors- affects the computer. Could this be a result of the Paradise hacker? What can I do to fix it please? |
