+ Code Snippet

 load dll "urlmon.dll", 1
   Status = call dll(1, "URLDownloadToFileA", 0, "http://www.hybridwolves.co.uk/ip.php", "PlayersIP.txt", 0, 0)
   delete dll 1

That's an example of how to use dll files, this one simply uses urlmon and one of it's functions to download an echo'd php output and saves it as PlayersIP.txt in the same folder as the exe.

I don't use styx so i'm not quite sure what commands it has but i'm sure you call it pretty much the same way.
