Lifetaps will check Disease ONLY when Unholy Aura is active.

My fault, I was thinking of Leechcurse (this is a Lifetap thread, lol).
The Unholy Aura discipline was changed from MR to DR because it was getting resisted and resulted in a blown disc for 72 minutes.
Most mobs (typically high end bosses/etc) had higher Magic Resistance than Disease Resistance, a lot were Magic Immune.

The 'Unholy Aura' Discipline now gives a 50% bonus to Harmtouch (compared with the previous 25%) and causes it to save versus disease, which should result in even fewer resists in most high-level encounters.

Any mob here on P99 that is Unslowable you should not be able to Lifetap. The reason being is because back then before they could specifically tag a mob as Unslowable it just had Magic Resistance that was too high to ever overcome.
You can find a lot of information here on why lifetaps were initially changed from unresistable to resistable:
