    You do, this being no more than a gui based on IEs rendering engine.

    Drivers, not really. As you have a limited set of "Apple approved" hardware, unlike x86 where you can pick up any old shit.

  19. Re:Embarrassing question ( you've been warned ) on More E-Voting Software Leaks Surface · · Score: 1

    You can, to a degree.

    Decompiling software leads to something that can be compiled back into the binary. However, most binary formats strip a lot of information to make the resulting binary smaller, things like method and variable names.
    You also have applications call obfuscators. This will make the code even harder to read, and change the execution path (where it does not change the functonailtiy of the programe).

    You can also encrypt part of the program, but this would require the application to include something to decrypt your encrpyted sections.
