Why all *.dev domains target to my localhost?

When you type *.dev domains, for example juas.dev it points to localhost, someone know why ?

(My hosts are not modified, and the request dont go outside)

What DNS provider do you use? It could be that you set up some sort-of DNS modification such as http://clintberry.com/2011/wildcard-sub-domains-on-osx-web-d...
No, I trace the route and the request never get out of my computer. It's always local and my hosts are not modified

Did you tried it too?

nslookup -d2 <hostname> and dig +trace <hostname> are your friend.
Have you ever installed pow from pow.cx?
Nope. I tried this on Windows and Linux with the same result.
