Default Aging and Paranoia?

Yesterday I bought a pack of three remote controlled energy saving adaptors
from Asda for a fiver.


The reason I want these adaptors is not to reduce standby usage - it's just
to make it easier to switch the PC etc on, as it's all tucked away in the
extremities of 'under the desk'.

I use a similar device occasionally, though not for a computer. I
have noticed that it can be switched off (fortunately never on,
so far) by radio car keys. Might be a problem if it crashes your
PC.
