Helicon Ape is a piece of software developed by Helicon Tech that brings Apache functionality to IIS web servers. It executes as an ASP.NET module for IIS 7 (and higher versions), integrating the functionalities of over 35 Apache modules.[1]

Helicon Ape uses a graphical user interface for configuration and browsing. It also includes a regular expressions tester and a password generator.[2] Helicon Ape provides proprietary modules for server-side debugging and profiling (mod_developer), SEO optimization (mod_linkfreeze), and hotlinking protection (mod_hotlink).[3]
