A:
You can update your hosts file and put in any subdomin for the localhost:
127.0.0.1 example.com
127.0.0.1 sub.example.com
You can then point your browser to either domain. So long as the debugger are attached to IIS/Dev browser, you will be able debug your server side code.

@Oded, @sshow: It doesnt seem to work. I wrote `127.0.0.1 sub.localhost.com127.0.0.1 *.localhost.com` in my host file. Saw it didnt work and restarted my computer. I get a `Server not found` error in firefox, chrome and IE8. I'm using windows 7 and only using VisualStudios. I dont know if thats consider IIS/Dev browser?

+1 also doing it like that here. @acidzombie24 try not using 'localhost' as the domain, not sure if it matters but that's a difference on how I'm using it.
