All incoming calls on my landline will ring twice than the computer is picking it up as a incoming fax.  I have uninstalled my fax machine and unplugged all phone lines connecting the fax. It still happens.  When i pull the phoneline from the computer and call landline it is all good.  So i am guessing it has to do with the computer.

There's the details we were searching for...
You need to re-set the modem properties to disable "fax on demand"....
