just to be sure on your end, download a small linux livecd and boot that to check your udp.
funny that lie, it would be fun to see how the NTL cable modems, and STB's would download the new config files for updated speeds without UDP and tftp.

"1: Purpose
TFTP is a simple protocol to transfer files, and therefore was
named the Trivial File Transfer Protocol or TFTP. It is built on top of
the Internet User Datagram protocol (UDP or Datagram) [2] so it may be
used to move files between machines on different networks."

there are masses of official UDP ports that most client/server apps use every day, search for 'udp text' to get an idea.
