I think dingo is correct, trying to use your outside ip to loop back via port
forwarding will never work.  Your hosts file is your best bet.  Google your
version of Winodows and HOSTS to find out where it's stored (I don't use
Windows so I can't tell you where any of them are) then edit the hosts file to
add the fqdn and local ip of your machine and you should be good.
