When launching a Web Site project from VS 2005 using the built in Cassini (Casini?) web server, the site will be placed in a Virtual folder instead of on the root.

This is the way it is handled in Web Application projects and also best repesents the way a web site would be hosted. There is currently a work around described here,
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/11/21/431138.aspx

VS should either launch the site off of Cassini's root or allow it to be configured to do so.

Launch a WebSite project using the Cassini web server built into VS. For example, my Web Site is called Web Diagnostics.

When the site is launched the page address is:
http://localhost:8888/WebDiagnostics/Default.aspx

When the site is launched the page address is:
http://localhost:8888/Default.aspx
