Just so you know hacker boys and girls, Microsoft and all other platform Unix etc all work with the US Government to allow key holes and exploits. When you punks find one it is closed up and another opened(called patches, upgrades etc). The files you think you can scrub or feign or make revolving are all rubbish. Your identity is known through voltage and signals not files and key strokes. They know who you are, kind of like allowing a Russian MIG to fly by a US aircraft carrier, it is planned, calculated to obtain, vehicle signatures via sound or electronic frequency and engine vortex/frequency mapping. All you hackers are allowed limited success and it is put in the paper to make you sure feel like you won, but your all just pawns. Too bad, some of you are really good, but your playing a higher game in a technology arena you absolutely just don't understand... So keep on spoofing your IP your MAC address, etc etc., or whatever else you feel keeps you invisible. Just so you know, it doesn't.

@Joe Edwards: Nope, sorry. What you're saying is just schizophrenic technobabble. Currently, there are no methods of tracking a connection proxied through a place where the target can't directly monitor the dataflow in and out of the proxy computer. It's physically impossible with even the most advanced of todays SIGINT technologies. Of course, you can always hack the proxies, but that's very hit-and-miss and requires access to advanced expertise, and is irrelevant after the fact anyway (most breakins are discovered long after the actual deed.)
