One much simpler theory is that she somehow got a backup copy of herself in Becca's implant before they even left the ship.
At one point Rebecca talks about finding a strange implant. That might be it.

They're called The Many because there's (
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/many#Determiner) many of them. :)
SHODAN started the experiments that led to the Many on Citadel Station back in the first System Shock game. When one of the botanical groves was jettisoned in that game, the Many were sent out into space on the grove and they evolved further. The ship crew found them when they were exploring.
Can I ask what your first language is? It might be easier for you to replay the game with one of the unofficial language patches.

I can see why someone who doesn't natively speak english might have an issue with the name of The Many.
The Many is (if you paid attention) a collective "hivemind" sort of life-form. It's made of many different creatures acting as one creature/mind.

No, but it's a pastime of mine to listen to the national anthems of other countries, and memorize them if I can. I'm from the States and our anthem is old and smelly.

At one point in the game Rebecca gets hurt but not killed and finds an implant. This is when the transfer to Shodans backup takes place. The logs explain this kinda. She feels funny and stuff after it happens. I wish I could remember exactly where they are. It was the whole reason her and the guy were allowed to escape in the shuttle.

W jendym z logow Rebecca cos wspomina ze znalazla dziwny implant a w innym ze zostala ugryziona przez pajaka. Teorie sa ze przez jedne z tych dwoch wydarzen, Shodan "zimplantowala" siebie w Rebeke, tak na wszelki wypadek. Pod koniec gry, Shodan obejumje kontrole nad Rebeka (tak jak w tym filmiku) i gra sie konczy.
To sa, oczywiscie, tylko teorie bo nie jest to na 100% wyjasnione.
A Polito to byla jedna z naukowcow na tym statku. Ona znalazla dysk na ktorym nagrana byla Shodan i przez przepadek uwolnila ja, dajac jej dostep do calego komputera. Gdy zdala sobie sprawe z tego co zrobila (oraz to co "The Many" wyrzadzili) ona popelnila sombojstwo. Gdy gra sie zaczyna, Shodan udaje ze jest Polito zeby uzyskac twoje zaufanie.
A "The Many" to mozna by przetlumaczy na hmm.... "Wielu" w tym sensie ze to to jest tak jakby jeden organizm sporzadzony z wielu mniejszych, wspolpracujacych i polaczonych ze soba istot (pajaki, rumblery, hybrydy itp).
A Delacroix to za duzo nie pamietam; to byla jedna z bab ktora probowala powstrzymac Shodan i The Many. Mozesz jej cialo znalesc gdzies w jednym z hangarow (nie pamietam gdzie).
