Iis – How to install URLScan

extensioniisinstallationwindows-server-2008

I went to the official Microsoft site to install URLScan 3.1 from here

However, the Web Platform Installer 4.6 is unable to find the extension to IIS. I've looked in the complete list, as well as under the server product list (which should be a subset).

My O/S is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise and I'm using IIS 7.5, which appear to be supported.

Any idea why the Web Platform Installer can't find the product? I couldn't find any information suggesting that the product is deprecated.

EDIT: I was able to download it directly from here. However, as pointed out by MichelZ, I'm not sure if it is now obsolete.

This is built into II7 now. See here

Request Filtering is a built-in security feature that was introduced in Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0, and replaces much of the functionality that was available through the UrlScan add-on for IIS 6.0.
