"Excellent Bundle"
Version: A-squared Free + Online Armor Personal Firewall Bundle 4.0.0.46/3.0.0.190
Pros
Excellent firewall and malware scanner for free.
Cons
a-square has high false positives, always do some research before removing what it finds. Online Armor isn't compatible with Vista and Windows 7.
Summary
Online Armor is probably the best firewall available for Windows XP, it is light on resources and easy to use. You may need some advanced skills to know what to allow or deny. a-squared has one of the best malware detections, if can remove many things that others don't even detect. However with its high false positive rate, you need to be careful of what you remove with it or ask someone who has more knowledge.

"WHY BUNDLE?????????????"
Version: A-squared Free + Online Armor Personal Firewall Bundle 4.0.0.46/3.0.0.190
Pros
Online Armor is a first rate firewall, in fact the second best firewall next to Comodo. I would still have it, but Comodo has become more secure and programable for my needs.
Cons
Why package a second rate AV and Anti malware with a first rate firewall? Why not bundle with malwarebytes. To me this is nothing more then bloatware with a great firewall !
Summary
Online Armor needs to be careful who they go to bed with and might want to break off this relationship before it soils their standing in the tech community.
