Port(s) Protocol Service Details Source
25 tcp SMTP SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). Many worms contain their own SMTP engine and use it to propagate by mass-mailing the payload, often also spoofing the "From: ..." field in emails. If you are not running a mail server that you're aware of, there is a possibility your system is infected.

List of some trojan horses/backdoors that use this port: Ajan, Antigen, Barok, Email Password Sender - EPS, EPS II, Gip, Gris, Happy99, Hpteam mail, Hybris, I love you, Kuang2, Magic Horse, MBT (Mail Bombing Trojan), Moscow Email trojan, Naebi, NewApt worm, ProMail trojan, Shtirlitz, Stealth, Tapiras, Terminator, WinPC, WinSpy
W32.Sober.I@mm (11.19.2004) - mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine. Affects all current Windows versions. Checks network connectivity by contacting a NTP server on port 37/tcp.
Trojan.Mitglieder.R (07.01.2005) - trojan with backdoor capabilities. It runs a SOCKS4 proxy server and periodically contacts websites with information about the compromised computer. Attempts to open a back door on port 9040/tcp. Might also initiate a SMTP spam relay server on port 25/tcp.
W32.Beagle.CX@mm (12.16.2005) - mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine to spread Trojan.Lodear.E. Also opens a backdoor on port 80/tcp and lowers security settings on the compromised computer.
Backdoor.Rustock (01.12.2006) - backdoor program that allows the compromised computer to be used as a proxy, uses rootkit techniques to hide its files and registry entries.

TCP ports use the Transmission Control Protocol. TCP is one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. Whereas the IP protocol deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent. Guaranteed communication is the key difference between TCP and UDP.

UDP ports use the Datagram Protocol, a communications protocol for the Internet network, transport, and session layers. Like TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), UDP is used with IP (the Internet Protocol) and makes possible the transmission of datagrams from one computer to applications on another computer, but unlike TCP, UDP is connectionless and does not guarantee reliable communication; it's up to the application that received the message to process any errors and verify correct delivery.
