Modes post mentioning Darwinia reminded me of this little gem I picked up in the Steam sales over crimbo. Basically a hacking simulator, where you work for an agency that contracts hackers to perform tasks such as breaking into government agencies to change peoples identities or stealing moneys from big companies to fund your own nefarious schemes (I hacked into a bank to steal £50k to upgrade some hacking software and my CPU  ). Really atmospheric, its best played at 3am listening to some ambient electro music to get that full on "i r teh haxz0r" feel. Well worth a look, its quite old I think, but nothing beats the feeling of breaking into some chumps bank account, stealing all their money and buggering off without a trace to spend your ill-gotten lewt on things that will make the next hack easier. £5.99 with Darwinia for free off of Steam, DO IT NAO!

PLus its copy protection is a bit of card with numbers on, which is awesome.
(if you bought it originally anyway)

Just started a new savegame. I recommend you using this fanmade mod Onlink. It adds much more depth to the game, including famous organisations like the FBI, new hackingmethods and some nice HUD-improvements.

Does that include a font readable at a current monitor?

I need to crawl into my monitor to be able to read the stuff :/ Maybe it works better when I'm not playing on my laptop.
Anyway the demo makes it look a bit repetitive, any word about that?

Arrrgh, what am I doing wrong, I keep getting busted?! ANd this time I had soo much of the good stuff. Proxy & monitor bypasser! And only a few bucks away from the security system I was saving for! I don't get it. I always kill my connection before I get tracert (lvl4 trace detection, naturally), I route my connections always over a dozen computers (no hyperbole) and delete my logs (best log deleter money can buy) on the target computer if I have time/access, and ALWAYS on the internic which I use as first routing point. WTF  Shouldn't I have transfered money from other bank accounts? Are you supposed to route that over several accounts aswell?

No idea, both times I thought I'd got away with it I got caught later on. I'd say don't bother stealing money  .

Silly question - are you supposed to leave the 'connect' log intact, and do you get caught if you delete that one (since disconnecting from internic is still gonna leave that entry)?

Internet says you should delete everything but the connect thing since you can'T prevent/delete the disconnect log and having a computer disconnect but not connect is suspicious. http://guide.modlink.net/section1.php#1-4
