SPUtility.OriginalServerRelativeRequestPath property
In the context of a web request, WSS will sometimes rewrite urls in _layouts and a few other file system directories. This property returns the original path before it was rewritten, which is useful if you need to get the subweb from which a layouts page was loaded. For example, when you open the link /subweb/_layouts/settings.aspx, WSS will rewrite the request url to /_layouts/settings.aspx, which is where the file is actually stored on the filesystem.
