On RealVNC 4, you should see the IP if you hover the mouse over the VNC 
server icon.

Alternate technique:
Assuming this is an NT-family operating system or Win98/Me, open a command 
prompt window (Start | Run; type in "command" on Win98/Me, "cmd" on 
NT/2000/XP/2003; hit "OK"). When it pops up, type in
    ipconfig
and hit enter. You will see ALL IP addresses for the system.

On Windows 95/98/Me, you can alternately just go to Start | Run and type in 
"winipcfg" and hit OK to get a graphical listing of IP addresses.
