You can find out the IP of any website from the using PING command Fyron described earlier. When you run the command the first line in the response will be the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) followed by the first IP belonging to that website to respond back.
IE:
C:\Documents and Settings\Katchoo>ping www.warcraft.com
Pinging www.warcraft.com [63.236.3.72] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Ping statistics for 63.236.3.72:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss)
In this example I didn't get any response from the Warcraft site, most likely because of a Firewall since I can get to the site fine within Mozilla & IE. Aswell most commercial websites will actually have multiple IP's routing to one Domain Name, so if you ping a site 10 times you may get 10 different IP address', but they all connect to the same site (Yahoo is like this).
To find out all the IPs associated to a site, use the NSLOOKUP command:
IE:
C:\Documents and Settings\Katchoo>nslookup www.yahoo.com
Server: nscott6.bellnexxia.net
Address: 198.235.216.115
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.yahoo.akadns.net
Addresses: 216.109.118.73, 216.109.118.78, 216.109.118.66, 216.109.118.64
216.109.118.65, 216.109.118.71, 216.109.118.74, 216.109.118.68
Aliases: www.yahoo.com
All the address' at the end are vaild IPs used by Yahoo to direct traffic to themselves.
Narf, this should work for all websites, so if you want IPs, just type any website name and at the very least you should get an IP back, if not a ping response aswell.
Hmm...after posting all this educational gobbeldeegook I feel like I should sew some elbow patches to the outside of my jacket...
