OK, I don't like to reply to my own posts, but I really dislike the way 
I seaid this...

When I said modules are 'loaded automaticaly', I ment to say when they 
are autoloaded buy the kernel when you have kernel daemon support 
enabled, the default is that they are loaded with the autoclean flag.  
Most distros have this  the default behavior now.

If you manualy insmod a module as stated above, it will not autoclean 
and stay loaded.  This could be done in /etc/init.d/rc.local or 
similar.
