I've been seeing similar problems. I've got a 2 year old (approx) Samsung set top box though. In the evenings, when I turn the set top box on from standby to watch a programme or two and switch channels, the set top box will often throw a wobbly, switching to a couple of other channels and even switching on/off before behaving correctly. There is certainly no sign of any activity on the remote while this is going on (i.e. the red LED isn't lit up to indicate that a signal is being transmitted). I've logged this behaviour with NTL and have an engineer due out tomorrow. Will post any updates tomorrow.
