Modem won't hang up!

I find that the only way I can get my modem to disconnect
is to shut down my PC. I used to get a pop up asking "Do
you want to hang up the modem when you go off line?" but
these no longer appear.

Also my PC seems to boot automatically when I lift the
telephone receiver. I've taken whole lot back to PC
World for its annual check up but they just shrug and
say "It's your modem". Is this a ploy to make me install
Broadband?
 
Can you disconnect it from the network connections folder?

This may be some weird effect of Wake-On-Ring functionality. You should
check your machine's BIOS settings.
