That sounds odd...it shouldn't be tethering automatically when you connect to a PC - it wouldn't make sense that your PC would be pulling internet data through your phone unless you configured it to do so.
Do you have an unlimited data plan?
...does the line item on your bill say "tethering"? Just seems very strange. I don't think the device will share an internet connection automatically. You might call Bell and ask for clarification...just remember when you speak to them, you're not using a custom ROM.
Ask them to explain in detail why you're being charged if you're not sharing the Internet Connection.
I haven't heard anyone report this issue...I would definitely get more information from Bell.
