1) You'll notice that Internic is the only site that never raises an alarm when you hack it. Get its admin password, then go to the directory and add a ton of public servers.
** Set up a relay starting at Internic as your first hop, bouncing around all the rest of the Public servers. Save this route - you'll load it back up a lot, and can just add on whichever server you're using as a target at the end.
 
** This will give you an obscene delay before the trace gets to you. But you still have to protect yourself from further investigations. After you're done with your hack, log into Internic and go into the admin logs.

** You'll see some lines:
 
*** '''[time] Connection from (your IP) established'''

*** '''[time] Connection from (your IP) logged off'''
 
*** [time] Connection from (your IP) established (the connection you're on right now)
4) You'll see some lines:
*** '''[time] (your IP) gained admin priviledges'''
 
** Only delete the lines in bold. You want to remove any indication that you pathed through Internic, and you want to remove the fact that you logged into the admin account - but if you remove the line that isn't bolded, the logs will end up with a logoff line that isn't matched up to a logon line, and the powers that be will know you tampered with the logs. (A note on this, you can choose to delete either of the 2 connection established logs, it doesn't matter which, so don't stress out. Just make sure that InterNIC displays the same number of connected and disconnected lines. )
 
** Get logdeleter to its max level as soon as possible and you'll be basically untouchable.

* Another good way to get more time before a trace hits you is to bounce through servers you have access to. The easiest way to do it is to open an account in each game bank (search "bank" in Internic).

My usual starting gambit is to open accounts in all banks, get loans, get password craker max version (skip the dictionary ones AND TraceTracker), get log deleter max version and complete some easy jobs. If you don't have enough cash for log deleter do a few easy jobs anyway, because if your bounce is long enough the traces will take at least a couple real time hours, enough for you to complete a lot of jobs and still delete your traces on Internic.

* If you want to play on the stock market, buy stock for the companies that you take jobs from. After doing the job, wait until it hits the news and your stock will be worth much more.
