If Windows doesn't ship with VC++ runtime by default, then that's kind of Windows fault.

then that's Windows fault, which is obvious since they are promoting .NET.
If Windows doesn't ship with a JRE, then that's Windows fault, which is obvious since they are promoting .NET.

C is best if you're going for speed.
C++ has many of the same slowdowns as Java does now. In fact today Java7 is about as fast as C++.

Here: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/Yeah the C/C++ ones are almost the same, and Java is generally much more RAM heavy...
If you don't like the crappy C++ code of any of the implementations, I think there are ways for you to submit a better one. But C and C++ are pretty much the same in that comparison.
