What is Starforce?

I just bought the game KOTOR and there is a small red box in the System Requirments with a notice that it has technology in order to prevent copying.

So before I open up the game to play I wanted to try and locate some more info on the subject. I believe that the copy protection is starforce and I remeber an Anti-Starforce or Boycott-Starforce webiste that had some info on the subject, but I can't for the life of me remeber the address.

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
Just install the game. Nobody is going to hack your computer and post those homemade porn movies on the internet if you install it.

I think he's more concerned with the "this company decided to deny me my right to back-up legally purchased software" angle, It's always better to know what choices you're making...if the OP really doesn't like a company deciding that for him, he should look into it, and return the game unopened if it bothers him. Like he's doing. Personal choice reflecting personal ideals...bravo!
 
I am not actually concerned with anti-piracy software. My angle was that from said site that I forgot the name too gave some info on the fears about what starforce was. Some things I am actually concerned about are things such as if it installs drivers and what it will prevent me from doing on my own machine. Really though, does this software go over the line, compared to say any other copy protections?

ETA: Excuse the grammer, made some corrections.
