The other alternative (for those who don't have control of their DNS fro
instance so can't set up a pile of virtual hosts) which I often use when I'm
developing is just to set up some alias's to the root of the directory tree
that you want to use
eg http://localhost/bollox/ would take you to c:\bollox\ if you had the
following in http.conf: -
 Alias /bollox/ "C:/bollox/"
 <Directory "C:/bollox/">
     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
     AllowOverride None
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
 </Directory>
