Macbook Random Shutdown

After 10 months of purchase of MacBook it stopped starting up. Appel service replaced the logic board after keeping it for a week with them. After this replacement I have been facing one or the other problems with this peice of crap!

List of problems I have been getting:

• MacBook automatically starts up when it’s shutdown and AC adapter is disconnected at random intervals. I can no longer take it with me when I travel as it automatically turns up and become extremely hot in the bag. Apple service center had kept macbook for 2 weeks in back to back services and still problem persists. OSX has been re-installed from scratch and that too did not help
• A power dialogue keeps popping up saying “Are you sure you want to Restart, sleep, cancel, shutdown?” even when I do not press the power button or any key sequence
• Battery icon intermittently shows “x” on it unless it’s removed and re-inserted after some time.
• It now runs very hot comparitively than it used to before I gave it for service.
