Edgarware, or "Edgar the Virus Hunter," is Strong Bad's anti-virus program on the Compy 386. He used it in the email "virus," in which it detected 423,827 viruses on the Compy. The viruses caused a Flagrant System Error and ended the computer before Edgarware had time to try to remove them.

Edgar the Virus Hunter

programmed entirely
in mom's basement
by Edgar      c1982

Edgar's weird name may be a reference to Norton AntiVirus, or the entire program's name may be a play on Microsoft's "Dr. Watson" which apparently is to help fix your computer, though if it is needed it is usually too late.

Edgarware makes an appearance in the virus-themed Main Page 22.

There is another software similar to Edgarware called Edga Jr., which first appeared in long pants.
