I'd say that on Windows, when you, or software you install, modifies the
PATH environment variable, and a service, like apache, relies on a directory
being in the path, you have to restart Windows in order for that service to
"see" the new path.
In other words, services get the new path only after you reboot.

Problem solved:
I restarted my computer and after that apache loaded ibm_db2 extension.
My conclusion:
1. When you add some extensions to php.ini, you need to restart windows
in order to get those extensions available through apache
2. However, those extensions are instantly available if you use php
command line interface
Anyone disagree?
