Home version for Mac sending out data?

v8media

I caught Sophos Mac Home having sent out 150MB of data. Is this program intended to send out any type of information? If so, what is being sent out?

I've removed the software for now.

    I can't re-create this ATM.  Soz.

    Below is an Activity Monitor screenshot after I deleted the entire update cache and forced a full download.  SophosAutoUpdate process is --as expected-- receiving the most data, but in terms of sent (outbound) bytes - nada.

    Keep and eye on it and see if it crops up again.  Note the process, column heading and value.  Screenshot if you can.
