Step 5 Install the DRM removal plugin
Step 6. Configure the plugin and Calibre
Step 7. Enjoy!
I have it down to six steps:

Step 1. Install Windows in Virtualbox
Skip Step 2.
Steps 3 through 7.

If someone really needs a Windows program, this is the best way. You get to sandbox Windows and still use your chosen OS. Does this ADE stuff need the Internet? If not, you don't even have to let Windows expose itself.
