No data for such statistics are gathered anywhere... the only thing you can see about your uploads are finished uploads and those are cleared on every program exit. However, you can log your finished uploads into a text file, there is a setting somewhere in settings for it.

Simple. Find another hub with lower minimum share and connect to ir.

As I replied to you via PM: That's some very exotic network setup... Of course you can only appear and work in active mode with users of the same network (campus) - to others you are passive. I don't think there is a viable solution for setup of Apex or any other DC client. In your situation, I would create two hubs, each for one network and then connect to the first one in active mode, and to the other one in passive mode. Let's keep our discussion here in public :)

You can only disable segmented uploads by disabling segmented downloads, I believe. For your second question: there is no way of banning a user from your share. But if you only visit hubs with some minimum share size, then you can be sure that no people with empty share will be downloading from you.

Of course it is possible. I think it boils down to ordinary correct active/passive mode setup. Enter the settings of apexdc++, tab Connection settings and play with it :)

It looks like your connection being unstable. For quick reconnect of all disconnected hubs, you can use command "Reconnect all disconnected" from Window menu.

Next thing you can try is taking your PC to a friend and connect through his internet - if it works there, there is a problem in your network. And more, take friend's PC to your home and connect it to your internet, see if he has problems. Of course, don't forget to configure port forwarding and active mode correctly, in both cases //edit: oh, you just posted your solution. Great to see the issue solved.

It is weird that CZDC++ works with the same settings. If the checker for open ports says your ports are open, that is reliable so the problem is elsewhere. One idea just came to my mind: try disabling your antivirus software/firewall/whatever security software you are using on your PC. It might happen that Apex has been previously allowed any connection, but after updating Apex, its exe file hash has changed and your security software treats it as unknown exe file and blocks it. Just a shot in the dark but worth trying.

By running a hubsoft - hub server.

Good idea, +1

On the other hand, client can check IP automatically every X minutes (but it probably does currently). Then it could reconnect all disconnected hubs, that makes perfect sense. This just puts the load on the server used for getting the IP address but I think that is OK if we have a pool of servers to (presumably randomly) choose from. Perhaps some1 of the dev team can enlighten us...?

Parsing the message is not a good way because every hubsoft uses a different message. Some hubsofts don't even kick you out. And we cannot be dependent on a message that can be localizable and is subject to change. About reconnection period: I know the client already has that one - it will reconnect automatically if connection from hub has been suddendly dropped. Maybe also in other circumstances... But I don't think this period is customizable. I only know that some other clients (the ones considered as 'fake' ones) have this kind of setting and are attempting to reconnect to hubs whatever was the reason for disconnection. This puts huge load on hubs.

You are right. But when the hub kicks a user out because of invalid IP address, the client doesn't know the reason - it's just a generic message. At least in NMDC, don't know if ADC has a mechanism for this...?

Unfortunately it's exactly like you described. But if I am wrong, someone from apex team is free to correct me :)

TCP and UDP port can be the same number. TLS/TCP and DHT/UDP can be the same number.

This "autorequest port" functionality you are writing about is called uPnP. So you have set your connection setting to be Firewall with uPnP and it dows not work, right? Does it say anything like "Failed to create port mappings" in the status bar/system log in Apex?

Hello, so a user started downloading from me now. I went to check his filelist, but, oh well, he's using oDC 5.31 so Apex said that it is not supported because it does not conform to TTH fully so it cannot download his filelist. But he can download from me without problems? I knew about this problem for quite a long time but just now an idea has come to my mind, that upload to there old and deprecated clients should be disabled because it's unjust that they can download but people cannot download from them. They should hold the cost of using a deprecated client, not the other users. Otherwise we don't force them to upgrade...?

Yes, this annoyance should be removed (my humble opinion, that is).

That's because ed2k links are for a completely different P2P network. You have to use a different client like eMule to handle them.

Great investigation you are doing there. Let us know with the result :)

Well, I don't know how uTorrent behaves here... But maybe someone of the developers knows more about uPnP and could enlighten us on how Apex does it? :)

Are you using uPnP with some other application? How does that behave? Well, to me, it's first time I see it that the application should periodically send requests to forward ports. It should be only sufficient to map ports at application start and unmap them on application exit...

ApexDC is just a regular program for exchanging files via a P2P network. It's legit and does not contain any spyware or perform unwanted activities. But dunno if a virus author couldn't have grabbed it and altered it for his own purposes... but that's highly improbable. Looking at the name of virus - it's a generic one, probably caught by heuristic analysis so that might be why you had a problem removing it. Is this "superantispyware" legit? Because there are many viruses that look like legit antimalware software but, in fact, are the opposite.

If it is a HTTP proxy (which is most probable), then the answer is no. If it is a Socks5 proxy, then yes. Just configure it on the Connection tab in settings.

Glad to be of help. Btw. UAC does not have anything to do with connections, UAC just blocks programs from writing into system directories (like Windows and Program Files).
