Even if it's correct to show all the IP addresses, this may be confusing for newbies.
ARZ aims to be useful for newbies, so it should show only one IP address, like the one you can see in eMule in Servers - My info - Web Interface.
My idea is to use ROUTE PRINT for this, but I need to investigate about that.

    Dunno, but if it works, then I should use

    FOR /F "TOKENS=2 DELIMS=[]" %%I IN (
        'TRACERT -d -4 %ComputerName%
            ^|FIND "["'
    ) DO (
        SET LocalIp=%%I
    )

    If there are multiple routes that are a close match for the
    route to a destination in the IP routing table, the route
    that has the lowest metric is used
    

    Source: Microsoft Knowledge Base 894564.
    Metric is showed in ROUTE PRINT output.

    if two network interfaces have the same metric value, then
    their priority is based on the network binding order

    It seems Windows always prioritize wired connection over Wi-Fi (I'd like to know this for sure, I found it in comments on some blogs), at least on Windows 7.

    Windows 8.1 disable wireless connection when a cable is inserted, so just one IP address is showed in Windows 8.1 at least.

    False, otherwise posts like Make Windows 7 ignore WiFi when ethernet is available shouldn't exist.

    It's well known the used route depends on the application, anyway according to Microsoft (again Microsoft Knowledge Base 894564)

    you may have a program that uses the first connection in
    the network connections list. You may want to make sure
    that a certain network connection is at the top of the list
    

    and I cannot see any reason that would suggest eMule to choose a route that is not the first one in the list.
