Sounds as if your BIOS is set to wake up on events that get triggered
when in standby. Things to check would be:
- Interrupts in general, there might be some spurious ones,
- Mouse/Keyboard (at least with a sensitive optical mouse...)
- Network

...but look for all these in the BIOS setup. Otherwise set up
hibernate-script to really shut off the computer.
