passive service checks

Hi all,
So I have been looking at Nagios as a way to monitor remote users
machines, and it looks pretty promising, except I have a few questions.
Is there a way to install the plug-ins or something comparable on remote
machines, without installing nagios? Really what I'm trying to do is
check_ping,
check_http, check_smtp on machines behind firewalls with a minimal of
installation. (Read: I can talk someone through it on the phone). On
linux it's not so bad, I could hack together some suitable scripts,
but...
How do people manage passive service checks on remote windows machines?
Is there a way that qualifies the above? At this point I am thinking at
best I can maybe use the java system but I don't want to deal with
having to support admin of a jre as well. Or I could write something
comparable in C, but my C skills are rusty and I'd rather not do that
either.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I'd greatly appreciate it!
Thanks!!
-Gabe
