No, you're right, it is an ISAPI application; it's just not a filter.

Are you saying that the DLL doesn't work when invoked from a browser either?

Yes, it would be like reinventing the wheel, but sometimes that's the best

invoke an ISAPI DLL. Do you have the source code for the DLL? Do you know
what it does?
