As far as I know, Macs don't have this problem. Those trying to 
solve it in Linux might try to understand how Apple addresses 
it. With some luck, the Apple approach is in the open source 
part of MacOS, making it easy to study. Windows users might 
approach Microsoft saying that other OSs have solved the 
problem, why does your OS still have it?
