DisableEventFiring is obsolete in SharePoint 2010

You can check this in msdn. However DisableEventFiring()/EnableEventFiring() still works as per Reflector.
Recommended way now is to use new property EventFiringEnabled. This gives us an option to check current status and save it. I found a great post from Adrian Henke and modified his code using this new feature.



The class DisabledItemEventsScope disable/enable event firing for the current thread and could be used in that manner at any place including code behind for the page or web part



BTW: There are couple useful SPList extensions to manage SPListItemEventReceiver collection
