ApateDNS Description

ApateDNS is a lightweight software application whose purpose is to help you manage DNS responses for a user-specified IP address by listening on UDP port 53 on the local machine. It comes in handy especially for network administrators who need to track DNS requests made by malicious software, trick the malware to send its traffic to a host, as well as catch additional domains used by viruses with the aid of the non-existent domain option. The advantages of being portableSince this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry. You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to control DNS responses on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps. Intuitive layoutApateDNS boats a clean and intuitive layout that allows you to carry out most operations with minimal effort. Everything is kept as simple and clear as possible, so even rookies can master the entire process with just a few clicks. Basic functionalityApateDNS gives you the possibility to specify the IP address that is needed for the DNS responses and enter the number of non-existent domain responses to send before responding with a valid response for each DNS query. What’s more, you are allowed to start or stop the DNS server, pick the interface that the DNS server will listen to, and use the built-in HEX viewer. Bottom lineTo sum things up, ApateDNS offers a simple yet efficient software solution for helping you spoof DNS responses to a user-specified IP address, and is suitable for all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
