:

B: HTTP modules differ from HTTP handlers. An HTTP handler returns a response to a request that is

identified by a file name extension or family of file name extensions. In contrast, an HTTP module is invoked for all requests and responses. It subscribes to event notifications in the request pipeline and lets you run code in registered event handlers.
