I know this may sound like I have a Wake up On Lan problem but I have always
had the wake up feature of the NIC switched off and I don't have any
automatic switch on enabled in the BIOS.

But for the last 2 weeks whenever I switch the PC running WIN XP Pro SP2
into Hibernate - it switches itself back on - seems to mainly happen at 7
am.  I usualy wait around for about 5 minutes after it goes into hibernate
to check that all the lights have gone off.

Any suggestions/thoughts?

You should also check to see if the power off mode / switch is not set
to "hibernate."
