Standby Mode

Is there any way to prevent my computer from returning from standby mode when I move the mouse? If my desk gets bumped a little it kicks my computer out of standby mode. I would rather it require a keypress to jump out of Standby. Is this possible?

And what's better...standby or hibernation?

This is an unpopular question. What's it take to get an answer around here? ;D
