In decreasing order of certainty:

1) You don't. Generally, you wouldn't install things in the site-lisp
directory unless it was a site wide thing: like managing a cluster of
machines in a lab for students to hack on their projects. It's better to
install a little code in your .emacs/.init.el:

(setq load-path (cons "~/lib/elisp" load-path))

This will add the directory (home)/lib/elisp as a search directory. Toss
your extensions (both .el and .elc files) into there.

2) Probably because your effort to load CUA isn't happening or it already
has one.

3) Clearly Uncommon Acronym?
