Mac users, you seem to be safe from the Java bug 

I wrote about a security problem that affects both Windows and Linux on November 24. The problem affects both operating systems because it's related to a computer language called Java which is designed to run on everything from desktop computers to cellphones.

I had to dig to find this out, but people have tested a couple of versions of Mac OS X to see if it has the underlying problem that makes the security hole possible. So far it still looks like OS X is safe from this particular security bug.
