It probably isn't, actually -- there's no single-player mode for UO.
You need to be paying them a monthly fee to access their servers to
actually play, so there isn't a whole lot of money for Origin to make by
being paranoid about legitimacy of copies; you don't need to insert the
CD to play. It probably does some checking to see if the version itself
is legitimate, to prevent people from hacking into their servers with
programs that pretend to be legit UO clients, but I don't know.
