See here for native DLL support.

AdiIRC Plugins¶

Plugins can load and use any DLL's including referencing all .NET frameworks DLL's and do P/Invoke, just like a regular .NET program.

If you get a "System.NotSupportedEception: An attempt was made to load an essembly from a network location" error while trying to load a plugin, try unblock the dll file as shown here

AdiIRC must be restarted after unblocking the dll.

Plugins can be installed from the plugins manager in File -> Plugins. They will be installed to the .\Plugin folder inside the AdiIRC config folder.
