I can't find the reference off hand, but I'm pretty sure that if ONLY
silenced weapons are used then the alarm is not triggered. I've been
wrong in the past though c(-:

Actually, wasn't there an errata that stated Hit and Run ended the run?

Anyway, from the online rule book
at:http://www.fasa.com/Shadowrun/SRTCG/SRTCGRules/SRTCGRulesPlaying.html

"Once a Runner team triggers the alarm, all Challenges are alerted to
the Runners' presence. The Runners cannot sleaze
Challenges for the remainder of the shadowrun and they must face the
Challenge on which they triggered the alarm. "

So if there is something that triggers an alarm, but doesn't end the
run (say Nets :-) ) the alarm is in effect (unless reset by something
like the Sleaze program) for the remainder of the run.
