title: MAMP Pro 4 and Sophos Warning about Adminer Database Manager
body: <p>I have been using Sophos Anti-Virus on the Mac for several years now with good results. Recently when attempting to download the new MAMP Pro 4.x, I received a Sophos alert that the MAMP installer contains the Adminer Database Manager, which it identifies as known Adware and PUA.</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone experienced a similar warning, and is there any reason for concern about this warning?</p>
  
  <p>The only real information I can find about Adminer is this:</p>

  <p>This post indicates that Adminer is some type of script designed to be an alternative to PHPMyAdmin.</p>
  
  <p>Can I just remove Adminer after installing?</p>
