A few questions

disco

All right, I know I should have searched and found the answers to all of these, but oh well.

What does Revelation do besides make the connection icon on the world mape glow red?
Why does the bank keep catching me when I steal money even though I bounced to InterNIC first, and deleted every log there after my hack, bypassed everything the bank had with v5, and got a new Gateway after I robbed it?
Exactly what logs do you delete at InterNIC? I usually delete all of them with v4 of Log_Deleter, and it usually works, except for when robbing banks.
How do you "compromise" a computer system? I know you type in on the console, "cd usr, delete" to destroy all of the files, "cd usr, run revelation" after copying Revelation into their file server to run the virus, and "shutdown" to shut down and reboot it. But what else can you do?
Would someone provide me with a link to the best place to get the Uplink soundtrack? The songs are really cool. (I think so anyway.)

Thanks in advance!

1. It kills servers.

2. Did you delete the money transfer logs? At both ends? As for your gateway, it doesn't matter, since your IP is always the same.

3. You should only delete the one that has your gateway's IP address in it, and the one that says you gained admin access to it. You shouldn't delete your most recent connection log, because it is suspicious if it only leaves a log saying you disconnected, but not connected to begin with.

4. You can delete the logs and the system.

Well, apart from utterly demolishing the glowie-system?
You've most likely made a suspicious footprint in interNIC. Notice how whenever you hop into interNIC to change the logs, you find a '120.0.0.1 logged out' or something? That doesn't show up until after you finished your deleting binge. Sooooo, don't erase your '120.0.0.1 logged in' entry, which makes you seem like 'just another browser'.
Well, the aforementioned thing probably applies here, too, but go ahead and delete the 'routed to x' logs too. Other companies may or may not catch you, just not nearly as fast. Snooze for a few weeks and you might get a few subpoenas. Maybe not.
'Compromising' means, more or less, that you've gone into a secure area that you shouldn't be hanging around in. For framing purposes, just getting an active trace a-going will make the sysadmin think you've compromised them, and if it's high-profile, will likely hit the news soon enough. In the console, you can instead ask for 'help', delete the logs in 'log' directory, but not much else can be done. (aside from a couple of special missions.
mrxak would probably know more about this.
/edit/ Sheesh. You're fast. I thought I'd get the first reply.

FOr some reason, (this torks me off) i download the music thig and everything is perfect then suddenly stuffedit expander says that it "doesn't appear to be coded in any way" and i can't figure out how to "decompress" it. I have even tried draging it over itunes, but that doesn't do anything. please help.

Did you read the description?

(Edit: UBB is messing up somehow, so I can't post the text, which has a URL to a mirror that works. Just go and read the description...)
