An easy way to do this in IIS 7.5 is to install the URL Rewrite extension from Microsoft into IIS.

http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite

Once you have it installed, you can just add a rule to redirect from ?code=1.a to ?code=1.b. In IIS, you'll see a new entry called URL Rewrite under the IIS heading for your website. You can use the editor there to create a new rule. Once the rule is created, it will be written into your web.config file.

In the web.config file, the rule should look something like this:

    ...
    
        
            
                
                
                
                    
                
            
        
    
    ...
