Richard, you can find a description of every Port on this page of the GRC site:
http://www.grc.com/port_0.htm
Just enter a Port number and/or click on the arrows.
Definitions of port abbreviations:
TCP - http://tinyurl.com/96fjc
UDP - http://tinyurl.com/9l2xt
ICMP - http://tinyurl.com/8ubmm
IGMP - http://tinyurl.com/9bv46
