Install the "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" network device, and assign it
the relevant address(es). IIRC that it doesn't ARP at all, and I've used
it in production for a number of SLB setups - not behind LVS though,
these were Cisco IOS or ExtremeWare setups, either using NAT or DR.
Worked for me.

If you go to "add new hardware" and "select from list", you should find
it listed under Network Adapters - Microsoft.
