Debugging Snort rules locally, is there a way around loopback?

["Digisec Ezine" <digisec_ezine () hotmail com>]

Is there a way to test snort rules on the same (Windows) machine that snort 
is located on?  I know that because of loopback, no packet that is sent to a 
local address is actually sent over the interface snort monitors.  Does 
anyone know a way to test locally?

Thanks,
Tatsu
