1) split the string into parts according to the dots
2) pad every part
3) lump them together

And just to add to Ivan's good advice, I'd be tempted to convert those 4 numeric strings to actual numbers - and maybe even creating an IPAddress class to hold them - because that's what they are.

As for displaying them: Have a look a String's format() method. It contains all sorts of controls for exactly this kind of stuff.

It should be added that what you're getting looks like an IPv4 address. You might also want to think about what you do if you get an IPv6 one.
