Hello Sandro,
It's done! After a lot of searching and trying, I have finally found the culprit. As you rightly suspected, it is hiding in the task scheduling library. It is "Mcupdate_scheduled", which can be found under Microsoft / Windows / Mediacenter. After unchecking the "Reactivate computer to run the task" box, the PC will no longer wake up unintentionally.
You have helped me a lot. Thank you.
Best regards
Gerd

Had problems with the new SP1 RC. It said Original Software (with the Microsoft star sign) and the evaluation copy (nanu, what is that ? o.O), even downloaded "WindowsActivationUpdate", but without success. Thanks Sandro and Deepxw for the patch, now everything works again. Happy Halloween =)

Many thanks for providing the download link and the relevant information. It helped me immensely as my computer unfortunately no longer wanted to do what I wanted it to do.
Thank you again!
