Auto-responding to http traffic on local computer

I am looking for a small utility that can perhaps sit in the tray that functions similar to Fiddler's Auto-Responder. I would be willing to write such a utility that supports taking a request and responding with data located in a file containing the response headers/body. I am writing an application is C# that would benefit from such a utility.

If there is no such utility, could someone point me in the right direct for beginning to write such an application? I ask because I figured someone out there probably knows and would point me in the right direction in no time.

Thank you in advanced for your help.

You haven't explained what's wrong with simply using Fiddler itself? If you run it using the -quiet command line argument, it sits quietly in the tray.

If you want to write your own application in C#, you can do so using FiddlerCore; see http://www.fiddler2.com/core/ for more details.

Typically we call this a web server. They listen for web traffic and automatically respond to it with a file, typically a webpage. Apache is cheap. I think MS has a free IIS package too.
