Custom PHP-coding in MU installs
With the Apache web server, one would create a rule in the .htaccess file. I believe the equivalent in IIS7 is the web.config file. This page appears to point in the right direction.

If you look in your theme’s comments.php file, you should see a call to wp_list_comments. If that has a callback parameter– something like this array( ‘callback’ => ‘twentyeleven_comment’ )— then your theme has its own comment display function. Find that function.
