Hi,
 
I am runnng a personal web server on my local machine and connecting to it using a web browser on my local machine.  I would like to capture the traffic between the browser and the personal HTTP server.  I am only able to capture traffic between the browser and HTTP servers that are remote from my machine.
 
I am guessing the traffic must use use the 127.0.0.1 address for local services and doesn't hit the network card, is this possible to capture local traffic?
 
Any help will be very much appreciated.
 
Thanks
 
Steve
