I'm pretty sure that this option is not enabled by default. You have to explicitly go in and turn it on. In any case, with CFMX it may not matter, as CFMX installs either an ISAPI filter on IIS 5 or an ISAPI wildcard extension on IIS 6, which will catch requests based on the URL patterns mapped in web.xml unless you've removed those URL patterns or disabled the ISAPI filter/wildcard extension.
