How do I get Fiddler to stop ignoring traffic to localhost?

To get Fiddler to capture traffic when you are debugging on local host, after you hit F5 to begin degugging change the address so that localhost has a “.” after it.

For instance, you start debugging and the you have the following URL in the Address bar:

http://localhost:49573/Default.aspx

Change it to:

http://localhost.:49573/Default.aspx

Hit enter and Fidder will start picking up your traffic.
