"DLL's" looks like the possessive, although http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_plurals#Plurals_of_letters_and_abbrevia... says that using 's to form the plural of an abbreviation is legitimate.

The apostrophe is sometimes used, but it's definitely not the preferred way.

Using apostrophes to pluralize abbreviations and numbers was more common in the past, but is outdated. In contemporary usage, apostrophes are for possessives and contractions, and only used to pluralize in cases where they are needed to make the meaning clear (e.g., "A's" vs "As").
