Borealis starting on its own at wrong time of day

I experienced it for the first time last night. I'm running 1.69 on XP. Didn't scare me since I had been keeping up with the bug reports. But annoying nonetheless. The anticipation grows for the next release!

On my spiel sequences I play in between each song, I noticed some lights would stay on, specifically five pixels on two firefly strands.  It turns out that I had pasted an effect that went past the end of the song, and those pixels were staying on because of that.  Go to the end of the sequence, then press Page Down to scroll out past the end.  You can then use the info tool to ensure all the cells are at 0% or place a 0% intensity in all the cells (place a black color for RGB channels) and then save it.  Once I did that, my channels went off and stayed off.  Even if you didn't paste an effect, something may have caused a phantom event to be placed (say, a shared sequence with an audio file that was originally longer than the one you are using).

And I can confirm that a short post show (with one looping silent sequence and no lights on) does indeed prevent the main show from starting up again.  We are working on a new build right now that will resolve this (release date unknown). 

We have not had this issue at all. Windows Server 2003 nothing else installed.

What exactly is causing it? Is it a gremlin or something?

Well I did Jonathan's trick and it didn't come on. I set it at 11:45pm until 12:30am. I didn't get the elbow in the ribs so it must be a good thing.
