Edgarware, or "Edgar the Virus Hunter," is Strong Bad's anti-virus program on the Compy 386. He used in the email "virus," in an attempt to clean out the 423,827 viruses he had on his machine. However, The Virus split into The Viruses and defeated the program. Because of the Compy's fate in the email and its inability to destroy the viruses, we probably won't see it again.
This is the startup screen for Edgarware:
Edgar the Virus Hunter programmed entirely in mom's basement by Edgar c1982
Edgar makes an appearance on the virus themed Main Page 22.
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.
There is another software similar to Edgarware called Edga Jr., which first appeared in long pants.
