My little Z87 mITX system keeps turning itself on and I've no idea why.

It's running windows 8 (not 8.1), but I already made sure that power off means power off (not sleep or hibernate)

under 'regular maintenance', I turned off the 'wake the computer to run this task' and I checked the BIOS and 'wake on LAN' is off.

Last time it happened there wasn't a single thing plugged in to it, inc USB or monitors.

Nothing is touching the start button and it's not super-sensitive or anything like that.

So with all that in mind...any ideas?!

It's connected via Wifi but I wouldn't have thought the wifi would wake it, right?
 
I think it was either the WiFi Go or WiFi Engine programs in Asus AI suite 3.

Have uninstalled those and it doesn't seem to be doing it now.

This thread also shows how many people just read the thread title, lol.
