No need to turn emotional over a technical matter - of course an O.S is made up of many languages and any techie can tell you that!  All I&#39;m saying is, this is a security hole in a THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE AND ORACLE HAS FIXED IT as opposed to a PROBLEM THAT WOULD NESSESITATE SOME CHANGES IN THE CORE MAC OSX. Does that make it any clearer for you? <div>

Hmmm, so if an OS is built in C++, its an issue with C++ and not the OS? Your argument is void. An OS comprises of many languages, so  before you start Googling randomly, Google firt the &quot;Recipes of an OS&quot;<div>
