well, i guess my subject heading sums it up quite well. :)

whenever the phoneline is plugged into the phone jack on
the modem card in my computer, it starts up by itself
when the phone rings!! it is not castastrophic but it can
be very irritating at times (i have to plug and unplug my
computer when i need to dialup) :(

any thought?

Chris;
Go to the BIOS.
Look for something like "Wake on Ring", usually in "Power" section.
Disable it.
 
A really funny story could come out of that subject line.....

For the ones reading technical replies, I would them (if they are kind
enough) to give
me their feedback with another post (in the same thread of course), so I
will know if my advice helped them or not.
