Hector,
You could use the Win32 IsDe{*filter*}Present()
API function.
Here's a code fragment showing it's use:
-------------------------------------------------
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
void test(void)
{
if (IsDe{*filter*}Present())
{
printf("de{*filter*} active\n");
}

}
int main(void)
{
test();
return 0;

}
