Now i'm using a desktop gadget, but maybe it could be displayed in the status bar or using some plugin?
Do you need to see it all the time? (Why?) If not, what about a simple botton/hotkey which display it when activated?
No, not really. This is more some toy thing. But since it might be easy to obtain (from ipconfig), why not? But you're right, a hotkey would be also ok. But where would the ip show?
Hey, the following button should do what you need. Left click copies your external IP to the clipboard. Right click copies your local network IP to the clipboard. Enjoy.

</button>Note: Didn't feel like trying to figure out if the Clipboard interface was accessible, so I just used that trick.
Thanks a lot! I don´t use external proxies at the moment, but it´s useful to have.
This is an updated version for the "copy local/external" ip to clipboard dual-button:
- using an alternative service to return ip, as i could not get "whatismyip" to work
- no more additional blanks and linefeeds in resulting clipboard content
