Yes I have also had the same problem. My Powerbook spontaneously dials
even while sitting in the Finder with no other applications active. I
thought it might be related to the SNMP extensions, trying to report
status or something, but it still happens after disabling them.

My current guess is that a failed connection attempt gets put in a queue
to retry later and somehow the "later" gets interpreted to mean several
weeks later.
