Fixed: Passive Trace investigations no longer start too early or remain active because of unrelated files. Clearing all traces now correctly ends an active investigation before a fine is issued. Threat Monitor now updates correctly when an investigation is cleared. Bounce Relay now cleans up only its own root relay logs. Please also note that passive trace can behave differently per computers, per company. It depends quite a bit on the NPCs that do investigation and their traits: diligent, loyal or curious NPCs work through investigation faster, and security aware NPCs spot logs or other suspicious data much better.
