now, if you'd get down to a normal level, TFTP is a protocol where tftp is a program that uses it. There 90% certainly is a third program that spawns those tftp processes which you don't see. Look for hidden processes.

Alternatively, close your TFTP port for use in either direction :)

PS: what's c++ about the question? It's more windowsish.
