Banks always catch me
I've read the guides, looked at the topics of people with the same problem with me, and still can't figure out why I get caught. Whenever I steal money from a bank account (using an account number from a 'Trace a recent balance transfer' mission) I get caught just a couple minutes later.
First, I get the HUD Connection Analysis, Proxy Bypass v5, Monitor Bypass v5, Password Cracker, the best Trace Tracker, and Log Deleter v4. I get a 'Trace a recent balance transfer' mission. I bounce my connection through about twenty other servers with the first server being InterNIC and then finally to the target bank. I disable monitor and proxy on the first bank, hack into the account, and look at the statement. I write down the IP for the second bank and the account number. I disconnect, and delete the logs from the InterNIC saying I logged in as admin and the logs about routed IPs. I leave the connection established log there. I get the link to the second bank from the InterNIC. Once again, I bounce through about twenty servers with InterNIC as first and the target bank as last. Bypass monitor and proxy, then crack the password on the target account. I get the name of the person for the 'Trace a recent balance transfer' mission, and complete that mission. Just to be safe, in case I take too long, I disconnect and remove logs from the InterNIC. Not the connection established log. I re-connect to the target bank and once again with InterNIC as first bounce bypass monitor and proxy. I already have the password to the account, so it takes me even less time to get in. I transfers lots of money to my uplink account, then remove the bank statement saying I did so. Connect to Uplink Bank through lots of bounces with InterNIC as first. Bypass monitor and proxy, remove bank statement saying I recieved lots of money. I disconnect and remove the logs from the InterNIC except the connection established log. Hooray! I have lots of money and a minute later, I get caught. Am I doing something wrong, and if so, what? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you're doing everything right. Maybe you're taking too long to do it?
Remember: Starting from the time you make the transfer, you will have about 3-5 minutes realtime before you are busted. If you are spending time setting up bounces between hacks, you'll be traced before you can clear your logs or the statements.

Version 1.0 of what? The game or the log deleter?
The game version should be 1.31. The patch is on Introversion's main Uplink site.
NEVER use any log deleter version below 4.0! Do so and you run the risk of being passively traced.
I'm not sure exactly how this works, but I've stolen money successfully about five times, and gotten busted once. The one time I got busted I was trying to steal 700000c. It is possible that the speed with which the banks trace you is somehow related to the amount of money being transferred. All my other attempts were amounts <= 500000c.
Your first priority should be to clear the transfer log from the source bank. Do this as fast as humanly possible, it's the first place the bank will look once they get alerted to a large transfer.
Your second priority should be to break your bounce log chain.
Your third priority is to enter the destination bank and clear the transfer log there.

Also, this is why I really like SimplyUplink's "Log Nuke" software, which makes wiping logs even easier!
To date, I've never been caught despite all my ISM destroying hijinks. Still haven't tried bank-hacking.
And if you're really gutsy, get the Gateway Bomb & Motion Sensor. That way if you're about to be found... BOOM. Keep ahold of your bank account number and assuming the game doesn't undo the transfer, you should be fine.
(Don't forget, the Save/Load bounce-track function is AWESOME!)
(Also, check out GameFAQs. They have several guides to help with Bank Hacks. )
