Whether it is or not, I'm afraid I'm just going to have to take the risk. I normally wouldn't. But this is Mass Effect and I don't have a spare machine to do this with.
There must be a way to make sure it does absolutely no more than the absolute minimum poking around on my drive necessary.
Hence the virtual machine, that should keep it from poking around outside of it's assinged space (barring flaws in the virtual machine or bad setup.). Do some reading on what DRM has done to machines in the past, while there are memorable things such as sony's rootkit they are just the very tip of the iceberg. There are even indications that some of the DRM schemes have even led to hardware failure due to messing with drivers. If I must install a game with such DRM it will go into it's own virtual machine because I can't trust it not to break stuff.
Then again since I run Linux I need to use wine and a crack or a virtual machine anyway, so it doesn't make much of a difference to me.
