Basically, it means that PC does not appear to be protected by any firewall at all. (This is *not* a good thing!) In terms of your issues with accessing CPanel, I don't think it means anything at all, as the test checked inbound ports on your PC, while you use an outbound port to try to log into your CPanel.

I don't know of any issues with using that script, but since it's not clear yet what is causing your issues, I'm not sure that it would help or solve anything.
