Well, to be perfectly honest, I don't know what all of the practical differences might be. In general, an ISAPI filter runs at the beginning of IIS's handling of a request, while an ISAPI extension runs later in that process. For example, if you use URLScan, that's an ISAPI filter which runs before IIS hands the request to CF or ASP or whatever. I don't know enough about ISAPI to comment further on that. When you run the wsconfig utility, it gives you the choice between using an ISAPI filter and an ISAPI extension.
