Edgar is a programmer who writes antivirus and email utilities for the Compy 386, Lappy 486, and the Corpy NT6 systems. He may live with his mother, as he does all of his programming in various locations inside her house. Edgar is a spoof of the popular Norton Utilities, which also used to have a picture of its creator as its icon. He apparently has many relatives and associates who also write software. All of their software is outdated.

Edgarware
Edgarware, or Edgar the Virus Hunter, is Strong Bad's anti-virus program on the Compy 386 and was copyrighted in 1982. He used it in the Strong Bad 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. The program appeared again on Main Page 22. Even later, the floppy disk container for Strong Badia the Free revealed that Edgarware comes in a suite of related applications, including "anti-spam, anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-mail, anti-productivity, and antidisestablishmentarianism software".
This is the splash screen for Edgarware:
Edgar the Virus
Hunter
programmed entirely
in mom's basement
by Edgar c1982
Edga Jr.
Edga Jr. is a software similar to Edgarware. Its purpose is to filter out emails that contain indents, since Strong Bad seems to dislike emails with multiple paragraphs. It first appears in the email long pants. Strong Bad calls Edga Jr. "one o' them red-haireded rapscalli...wags."
Its splash screen reads:
Edga Jr.
The Long Email
Killa Filta
"Indent and Die!"
programmed entirely in Mom's sewing room c1989
The placeholder email address for the Deleteheads mailing list signup on the Index Page and the Trogdor!! The Board Game website is EdgarJr@traindropper.com.
Edgar's Baby's Daddy
Edgar's Baby's Daddy is a computer protection software similar to Edgarware and Edga Jr. It is a Homestar junkmail filter that filters out all emails sent by Homestar Runner, who seems to email Strong Bad several times a minute. Strong Bad has it installed on his Lappy 486. It was seen in the email candy product.
The filter screen reads:
 H*R Junkmail Filta | ||||||

Grandmaw Edgar
Grandmaw Edgar was given to Strong Bad by The Cheat. It was used by Strong Bad in from work in order to get around the corporate firewall and check his email. Its loading screen features an animation of Grandmaw Edgar pole vaulting over a brick wall into an envelope.
Its splash screen reads:
Grandmaw Edgar's
CORPORATE FIREWALL
GET-AROUNDER
Edgar's Older Cousin's Pet Ferret
Strong Bad, on his Twitter account, says that he uses Edgar's Older Cousin's Pet Ferret: The Redundant Tweet Obliterator to delete Tweets about how he can Tweet with boxing gloves on. His ferret is touching his dick. This program has never been shown in action, but its floppy disk reads:
Edgar's Older Cousin's
Pet Ferret:
The Redundant
Tweet Obliterator
Edgar Jr's Cool Babysitter
Strong Bad uses Edgar Jr's Cool Babysitter's Twee-Mail Converter to convert Tweets to emails, according to @StrongBadActual. The spelling of Edgar Jr's name here indicates that "Edga Jr." may be just a nickname.
Its splash screen reads:
Edgar Jr's Cool Babysitter's
TWEE-MAIL CONVERTER
programmed entirely while Edgar Jr.
was in the bath.
Edgar's Luddite Paw-Paw
The third Edgar-related software to be introduced by @StrongBadActual, Edgar's Luddite Paw-Paw's Unfortunate Tweet Deleter is what Strong Bad uses to delete unfortunate or confusing Tweets (although it's possible to delete one's own Tweets on Twitter without the use of this program). The Unfortunate Tweet Deleter seems to have been in action at least once, to delete a misleading Tweet about Trogdor!! The Board Game's release date.

UNFORTUNATE TWEET DELETER

whippersnappers both young & ornery
