How safe is it to mess with live malware in a virtual machine ?
I would use a second pc but don't have one.

The translation was not perfect, so I may have misunderstood your question.
A virtual machine simulates a real machine is completely safe u use a virtual machine for testing, a virtual machine isolates your real system, then you can mess with malware without concern.
Google translator may have failed, sorry.
No because you are wasting your money, just use a VM.Thanks guys!
Would the safest way be to buy a second computer just for this ?

EDIT: Use a VPN on your host machine.
A VPN is not needed but it decreases the chance and makes it harder for malware to spread on your network.Can I ask why you need to use a VPN?
You don't need any of that if you are using a virtual machine.
No need really as long as you have an updated host and you have a snapshot of your clean VM you should be fine.A VPN is not needed but it decreases the chance and makes it harder for malware to spread on your network.
But how about If malwares get my Host system IP address?A VPN is not needed but it decreases the chance and makes it harder for malware to spread on your network.
