Is DIFxApp history??

A long while back I jumped on the Difxapp bandwagon for installing our
signed File System Filter driver. It seemed to be light years ahead of using
InstallHInfSection().

Well, in going through the whole Certified for Server 2008 exercise, it
turns out that Microsoft frowns on using DifxApp. They require use of
InstallHInfSection for installation of the driver. They would "accept"
difxapp for now but not in the future. I did remind them that they produced
Difxapp and it is in Vista documentation as the recommended method of
installing drivers, but they were not impressed.

I hate to go through the exercise of getting rid of all the difxapp stuff
without some confirimation that MS is really dumping support for it.

Thanks,
Bob
