ARC Storyline
You will get these missions if you destroy the Arunmor Internal Services Machine using revelation when they give you the mission.

MaidenFlight
Description: Upload and run a file
Payment: 10000c
Required Software: File Copier, Password Breaker, Monitor Bypass v5, Proxy Bypass v5, Firewall Bypass v5

Connect to Arunmor Internal Services Machine and bypass the Monitor, Proxy and Firewall. Break the password and enter the File Server. Run your file copier on Revelation, then copy it to the File Server, then go to the Console. Enter the usr directory (type 'cd usr') and the run Revelation (type 'run revelation') and wait for the Virus to become active. You will automatically be disconnected when it does, and a red square will appear on the world map. Once this is done, disconnect, clear your logs and reply to the email.

Darwin
Description: Copy a database
Payment: 15000c
Required Software: File Copier, Password Breaker, Monitor Bypass v5, Proxy Bypass v5, LAN Scan, LAN Probe, LAN Spoof, Voice Analyser, Decypher, Decrypter v5

Description: Before you connect to Darwin Local Area Network, you will need to get the Voice Pattern of the Darwin Admin, so go to the Darwin Public Access Server to get his number, then connect and record his voice.
Now, go to Darwin Local Area Network, and Bypass the Monitor and Proxy, You will now need to work your way through the LAN Since the LAN is randomly generated each time, there is no set way to do this, but you should aim for the Main Server system (Refer to Section 3.1 if you need help getting through LANs). When you are in the system, enter the File Server, and at the bottom should be 9 files, 10Gq each names Darw-DARWIN x.dat. These are the files you need to copy. Copy all the files to your memory, disconnect, and clear your logs. Now, connect to the ARC File Server and copy all of the files onto it. If there isn't enough space, delete any useless files that may have appeared. Once you have copied all of the files, use the Decrypter on them, and then you can reply to the mail and finish the mission. If you didn't have enough memory space for all the files, you will need to make 2 trips.

SaveItForTheJury
Description: Frame a user for bank fraud
Payment: 20000c
Required Software: Password Breaker, Log Modifier

Description: Using only 3 or 4 bounce points (InterNIC being the first as always), connect to the bank that ARC gave you in the mission statement. Without bypassing any security, enter the password entry and attempt to break the password. Let the trace run until only 7 or 8 seconds remain, and then disconnect. Now quickly connect to InterNIC and enter the log section. Run the log modifier on the bounce log, and change the log so that the 'From' IP is the IP of the Arunmor Technical Director.
As soon as you have done this, delete the Admin Access log and disconnect from InterNIC, then reply to the mail straight away (do not wait for it to appear in the news) to finish the mission.

ShinyHammer
Description: Destroy a database
Payment: 30000c
Required Software: Password Breaker, Voice Analyser, Decypher, Monitor Bypass v5, Proxy Bypass v5, Firewall Bypass v5.

Description: First of all, you will need to get the link for the Arunmor Central Mainframe. You can do this by hacking the Arunmor Internal Services Machine and going to the links section.
Once you have done this, connect to the Arunmor Central Mainframe, bypass the Monitor, Proxy and Firewall, and break through their security. Enter the console, and delete everything from the usr and sys directories, and when that is done, shutdown the system and disconnect. Clear your logs and then reply to the mail (do not wait for it to appear in the news).

GrandTour
Description: Destroy the Internet
Payment: 50000c
Required Software: Revelation, Voice Analyser, Decypher, Monitor Bypass v5, Proxy Bypass v5, Firewall Bypass v5, File Copier.

Description: The final ARC Mission. This mission is made hard by the fact not only do you have to quickly spread Revelation, but you also have Uplink planning to disavow you for working for ARC, and Faith working against you to stop Revelation, so the pressure is even higher. You should be aware that if Faith is a higher version than Revelation at this point, the mission becomes next to impossible, because it doesn't spread.
Basically, you have to copy Revelation to every server you can, go to the console, and run it. Don't worry about deleting your logs, because it's game over regardless of the result. You will know when you have been successful, because Revelation will spread to your system.
When you have finished the mission, you can confirm it by checking your agent status to see if you have the GrandTour badge.
HINTS: Stick with the easy systems, like Internal Services to start with.
Be FAST.

This is the last of the ARC missions, and the end of the game. By going with ARC, you have condemned your Agent to the game over screen
