This looks like you scanned yourself. For it to be valid and make use
of all the features of pmfirewall, you must get an external machine to
scan you - also not an internal machine on your local network. The
reason is pmfirewall sets itself up to protect you and your internal
network (even if you dont have one) from the Internet. On my machine
pmfirewall hides all those ports. There are free web scanners around
now that you can get to do a scan on your box and which also explain the
results.
