Why is ESS rated so low?

I was just browsing through some sites when I saw this Firewall test results posted here: http://www.matousec.com/projects/firewall-challenge/results.php

Is ESS that bad? Personally, I have had no problems....but this looks bad.

Please correct me if I am wrong in posting this section or this is a dupe post.

Because the tests themselves are flawed
Have a careful read on this:

Hi See www.grc.com and download the leak test and you will see that the eset firewall is working very well

See www.av-comparatives.org

Avira and NOD32 come up top in the latest report.
