"So Far So Good"
by: Youn Tze
Online Armor Free Firewall 5.1.1.1395
Pros: as long as i used this firewall nothing found as a serious problem except some bugs that's always been fixed by it's developer, i've used it from version 3.XX, windows Xp SP3 with full of stuffs. Cons: not yet Other Thoughts: for the user of g**gle chr*me or some of it's decendant, i think u should add some rules to allow it to run on your system. I myself didn't use it because some test that's been done by my friend's found it (g**gle chr*me)'s sent our net activity to it's server (just like spyw*re did) - but i didn't blame it, it's up to you if you like to use it.
that's my opinion though. Thank you for your willing to read mine. :)Was this review helpful?   8 out of 12 users found this review helpful.

"Incompatible Google Chrome"
by: Ricardo
Online Armor Free Firewall 5.1.1.1395
Pros: Nice and easy to use interface
Very informative and easy to configure
Seems to work well. Cons: Google Chrome can't connect with this firewall installed. It does not appear in the allowed or denied program list, so there is no way to enable connection.
It also slows down the system a little, but not as much as ZoneAlarm does. Other Thoughts: I'm still searching for a good firewall. Private Firewall iis intrusive, as well as PC Tools. ZoneAlarm overloads the system with 98% CPU usage. Online Armor can't work with Chrome. Now trying Comodo.Was this review helpful? 14 out of 28 users found this review helpful.

"Excellent Program"
by: CyberWolf64
Other Thoughts: I have NEVER had a problem with this program. Makes me wonder about other people systems though.
I have the following hardware: AMD K6(2)-450MHz, 384 meg RAM, 16meg video card, and running Windows XP with SP2.
So, if I am having NO problems with a PC that ancient, then what could be the problem(s) with more modern power house machines? I think it is all the more modern stuff. Well, my opinion anyway. :)Was this review helpful? 61 out of 116 users found this review helpful.

"locks up my XP SP3 laptop"
by: reverbfreak
Other Thoughts: Was using PC Tools Firewall, worked flawlessly, but I saw high ratings for Online Armor, so tried it. I had nothing but trouble, used the Wizard to register all installed apps as safe, it didn't remember any of them, didn't remember the startup programs on two reboots, locked up the PC desktop twice forcing a hard reboot. Had to uninstall, then installed Comodo Firewall (only), works fine. Has higher ratings than PC Tools firewall so I'll try it for now. Don't know what the problem was but I had big issued with running Online Armor on my 3.2Mhz 1GB Toshiba Satellite XP SP3 laptop, so it didn't work for me one bit.Was this review helpful? 66 out of 128 users found this review helpful.

"The 1 rating is too high!"
by: Quaro
Other Thoughts: When my Windows XP Pro system got infected with the Downloadalot virus, I wiped the HD and reinstalled everything. I tried the OA 4.0.0.44 firewall and could not believe how fast this piece of crud locked up my system! After using RevoUninstaller 1.87 to get rid of this 'firewall', I went back to my PC Tools Firewall Plus, which is better in any category than OA!Was this review helpful? 63 out of 128 users found this review helpful.

"Excellent Firewall"
by: CyberWolf64
Other Thoughts: I too have tried numerous firewalls.
And I LOVE Online Armor Personal.
Works wonderfully.
NO chinks in Armor as a previous poster suggested. ALL things work fantastic. And, also contrary to another previous poster DOES NOT SLOW MACHINE AT ALL.

I use Avira Antivir Free and the 2 progs work positively wonderful together. Sounds more like a config error on your part.Was this review helpful? 68 out of 127 users found this review helpful.

Other Thoughts: Installing firewall depends on your needs and your surfing habit without mentioning how tech-savvy you are. The firewall software that I've installed compliments the firewall inherent or present in my router. Maybe Online Armor Free is already sufficient to some surfers but not for me. If you want to know more about firewalls and and who among the contenders is the best, you may visit www.matousec.com/projects/proactive-security-challenge, or start digging at www.matousec.com. The result is independent and recognized to be true to its words. Latest test result ranks Online Armor Free at 7th place.Was this review helpful? 57 out of 111 users found this review helpful.
