What are the 69, 123, 137, and 161 UDP ports?

I've just recently scanned my computer with SuperScan 4.0 and it came up that I had these UDP ports open.

===========Question====================
What are these ports UDP 69, 123, 137, and 161 ports and what can a hacker do with these ports?



============Optional(Worth extra 50 points)======
And if a hacker can do something with these ports, what would that application be that he would use?  And where could I get this application?  (If this question can be answered)

P.S.  This question will be answered in the next hour.  So try to comment soon.
69 - TFTP
123 - NTP
137 - NetBIOS Name Service
161 - SNMP

Assuming a hacker has full access to these ports, there's a lot they can do.  The most vulnerable are NetBIOS and SNMP.  If the hacker guesses your SNMP community strings, he could completely change your configuration on the device, opening it for further access.
