eMule Xtreme Mod is a free peer-to-peer file sharing application for Microsoft Windows based on eMule, released under the GNU General Public License, coded in Microsoft Visual C++. It connects to the eDonkey network and the Kad network. It is one of the most popular eMule mods (modifications of the original eMule).

History
The eMule Xtreme Mod project was started in about 2004 by a German programmer "Xman". On January 2005, the project began to host on SourceForge.

Dynamic Leecher Protection (DLP) was added to Xtreme 4.5 released on September 27, 2005. It can identify and ban or reduce scores for some leecher mods. Now the DLP is used by some other eMule mods.

Features
The main additional features of Xtreme Mod are:
 * Maella Bandwidthcontrol, calculates the real Overhead
 * NAFC (network adapter feedback control)
 * Advanced Uploadbandwidththrottler with adjustable slotspeed
 * Xtreme Downloadmanager for a clever source-handling
 * Improved Xtreme-Creditsystem
 * Powerrelease with dynamic Hide OS, to release files faster
 * Dynamic Leecher Protection (DLP), protects from leecher-mods
 * Multi-threaded disc access
 * Universal Plug and Play support (UPnP) for automatic router configuration

Dynamic Leecher Protection
Dynamic Leecher Protection (DLP) aims to protect clients from leecher-mods, this feature is applied by some of other eMule mods like: MagicAngel, X-Ray, NeoMule, CN, etc. and mods based on Xtreme, such as ScarAngel, Mephisto and Dreamule. Some or all versions of Xunlei, Vagaa, Tuotu, FlashGet, BitComet and other suspected leechers or GPL-breakers are in the blacklist of Xtreme's DLP library.

Chinese VeryCD easyMule implements DLP but uses its own modified source-closed library file. They removed Xunlei from the blacklist, and have wrongfully banned Xtreme, MorphXT and some other eMule Mods twice.
