None, that folder was there and has been removed because of a lot of
security risks in the past.\
If you recreate it, be sure it does not exist under Winnt\System32\ (or
Windows\System32\)

You are right. You can program it, and be sure that the ISAPI filter runs
within the scripts folder having execute rights.
Using a tool from \inetpub\adminscripts is OK to add the new folder. You
also could use WMI scripts when you have IIS 6.
In addition, the NTFS folder containing the ISAPI filter, should have
minimal rights. Make sure IUSR_ and IIS_WPG have execute rights and SYSTEM +
admin full rights and nobody else should have rights.
