That's perfectly normal. There are two kinds of tracing.

Active: indicated by the trace tracker. Obvious.

Passive: if you disconnect before the active trace finishes, the company will hire another agent to trace your connection manually, hacking each server you bounced through, checking bounce logs, leading back to your gateway. If they reach that, you're toast. This only happens after the first few levels. Smaller companies will not waste time for petty intrusions, but the Internationals will take things seriously.

Solving the problem: use InterNIC as your first bounce point all the time. Get the best log deleter and right after you finish your job, go to InterNIC (no need to bounce, that place has no security at all). Log as admin, and delete all discriminating logs. What you should look for are the bounce logs and the password authentication log. Keep the log-in log intact. That way the other hacker will only see a harmless log-in/log-out pair of logs. They won't have anything on you and you got away free.
