Atif:

If you want to intercept actions before running PL and other scripting languages, your best bet is to look at coding an ISAPI filter. You can start your MSDN
search by looking for "IIS ISAPI Filter example".

Of course, you can use IIS to control access to files and folders with Windows Integrated or Basic security.

-rwg
This is what I think, not necessarily what is accurate!
