Macbook Mountain Lion wakes from sleep every 3 minutes..?

I'm on a late 2008 13-inch Macbook running Mountain Lion 10.8.3.


Since installing Mountain Lion, my machine won't stay in sleep mode.

Whether I select 'sleep' from the apple menu or close the lid, it seems to wake every 3 min (I've timed it).

I discovered this when I closed the lid overnight once and found my computer scorching hot in the morning!


I've checked:

- energy saver preferences

- deselected 'wake for network access'

- bluetooth is off

- file sharing is off


Very annoying - please help!

MacBook, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)
