Standard Edition

Emoticon panel

ApexDC++ allows you to send graphical emoticons to users. You can install multiple emoticon packs at once from our customisation page!

Configurable descriptions

Users often use the description field to identify themselves and provide extra information. You're able to add text, display the number of slots you have available and speed tags. The field is highly customisable!

Powerful toolbar controls

The Windows Vista styled icons are beautiful images created to ensure the user identifies what each image does quickly. You're able to increase or decrease the toolbar size in the toolbar area if you have the equivalent toolbar icon size.

Control your Winamp!

Control your Winamp while using ApexDC++. If you use foobar2000, you may use this toolbar too! Simply download the winamp spam plugin for foobar 0.9.x.

Share skiplist

Ever wanted to state which files you don't want to share within the folders specified? Well with ApexDC++ you can! Simply define the extensions you dont want shared (wildcards supported).

Peerguardian support

We wanted to bring you a more secure program, and with this plugin we did. ApexDC++ is able to download the Peerguardian blocklist and load it straight into the client, blocking any bad IP ranges it meets. Feel safer and download the plugin (install to ApexDC++/ directory)!

Protect ApexDC++

Tired of people opening ApexDC++ while you're away from keyboard? Simply enable the password protection feature.

Various hub control features

Closing disconnected hubs individually is a pain, and so we enhanced the window menu to allow the user to do all sorts of things.

System tray controls

With our improved system tray meny, you're able to limit transfers directly from the tray menu (without the need to load up the client!)

About menu

The about menu is useful for finding extra resources. You're able to visit our guides area for help or even visit our recommended P2P sites to use in conjunction with ApexDC++.
