Computer Over. Virus = Very Yes. That's NOT a good prize!
LTPHarry15 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
It was November 2004, and you were awaiting the next Strong Bad Email, but what we got instead... was TOTAL CHAOS! Chaos to the point that the whole site was virus'd!

It starts off like any other Sbemail, only for Strong Bad to find out that the Email he got was nothing but letters and words, with a "Strong Ba", like some sort of Linux being eaten in his word. When the Compy refuses to delete the email, Strong Bad uses his "main-man" antivirus system Edgar who reveals to him that the Compy has over 400,000 viruses! Then, the viruses start taking over, throughout the entirety of Free Country, USA, and the ENTIRE Homestar Runner universe!

Strong Sad turns into a card, Homestar loses his leg, the King of Town finds himself in a Teen Girl Squad comic, and much more insanity happens until everything is back to normal, but things may not seem to be with an explosion heard...

Strong Bad is happy that Bubs fixed the Compy and got rid of the 400,000 viruses - until he notices the shotgun in his hand. Bubs reveals to Strong Bad that he shot a big hole in the Compy, and that he had no choice as his mouth turned into a broken JPEG. An emotionally distraught Strong Bad screams to his computer room to the remains of the Compy, now with a massive shotgunned hole in it as he sobs out random words.

Now, as this Sbemail was around before YouTube, or Facebook, or other social media websites, it shows how powerful Flash could be, as it could pretty much take over the whole site! In one part, there was even a real pop up in addition to the fake ones. That's how much control there was. The humour really worked out as well to show how in control the 400,000 viruses were, and Matt Chapman (Strong Bad, Homestar Runner, all other characters) and Missy Palmer (Marzipan) were great as always.

This goes down as one of the best Sbemails to date.
