What is a PUA?
PUA stands for Potentially Unwanted Program. This is a program you have installed on your computer that Sophos thinks might be bad. It could be spyware, but it also could be a program you installed and want to run on your computer. For example, Sophos will list WeatherBug as a PUA. For more information about PUAs, how to find them, and how to handle them, please see the VCU Sophos PUA Manual.
