DC++ 0.882 Stable

DC++ application is an open source file sharing client for Windows for the Direct Connect and Advanced Direct Connect network. Direct Connect allows you to share files over the Internet without restrictions or limits.

The DC++ client is completely free of advertisements and has a nice, easy to use interface. Firewall and router support is integrated and it is easy and convenient to use functionality like multi-hub connections, auto-connections and resuming of downloads.

DC++ is a highly ranked piece of software among the projects hosted at Sourceforge. With more than fifty million downloads, new users continue to find benefits from the software every day. The program is, based on observable factors, the most prevalent client on the Direct Connect network.

DC++ is free software, written in C++ for the Direct Connect and licensed under the GNU GPL 2.

Features:

• No ads, spyware, or bundled software that you don’t need

• Shares large files and many files per your organization scheme
• Tiger Tree Hashes (TTH) used for file integrity
• Search across all (or selected) connected hubs by file type, size, name or hash
• Resume of downloads, with optional automatic search for alternate sources by TTH
• Logging options and configuration for chat, private messages, downloads, and uploads
• Automatic connectivity setup with autoconfiguration of UPnP and NAT-PMP routers
• MAGNET link support for linking to specific content
• Automatic and manual download priorities
• Saving of user’s file lists for browsing and queueing

• NAT-Traversal support
• SSL encrypted secure hub-client communication and file transfers
• Bandwidth limiting capabilities
• Plugin support

Changes in DC++ 0.882 (2024-11-18):

• The Find text function within contents of hub and private chat windows now offers selected or at-the-cursor text by default to search for
• Similarly a “Search in hubs” by text and TTH context menu function has been added to most textual content windows for easy searching all connected hubs for chat contents
• From now you have a quick way to copy and share magnet links of freshly indexed files, right from the System Log entry by using a new item in the window’s context menu
• A popular request has been filled with adding an option to disable DC++ window previews in the taskbar rather than using the global setting of the operating system

Some under the hood improvements:

• Implemented the ADC encrypted active search results feature (SUDP). The feature is enabled by default on all secure ADCS hubs for search and result transfers between the newest DC++ versions
• More secure processing of XML files coming from foreign sources
• No loss of partially downloaded data in case of an operating system shutdown during non-segmented downloading of large files
• More efficient hash data rebuilding
• Segmented download initial chunk sizes has been tweaked to align with current average internet connection speeds. Please note that due to the special nature of the algorythm DC++ has for multi-source downloads, this change should effectively disable segmenting for the second chunk and on for downloads having only one source in most cases, due to the high bandwitdth availability of most of today’s internet connections. This change might also help you dealing better with those anti-segment evangelists – a few are still around after 25 years…
