My questions are:
a) Am I doing something wrong/stupid when I try to delete my logs on Internic?
Why Have I not been traced so far and caught since I have NOT been deletinhg my logs at all?**
a)It's possible but it may have to do with your log-deleter version.
To delete a log, run the deleter program, then carry it over on top of your undesired log (in most admin sections, including interNIC) and click. The program should be 'dropped' and a progress bar will run across it. What happens next depends on the deleter version. 4.0 is accepted to be the only acceptable version, as it is impossible to undo.
Most likely, it's due to you doing relatively benign missions thus far. That, and there's a lot of red-tape and cooperation between companies and governments and banks and whatnot to agree on sharing logs for a passive trace. If you're not trying to steal money for yourself, a passive trace could take anywhere from hours to weeks, if your target even considers it worthwhile to bother tracing you.
