Nice to hear that ;)
You won't need a C compiler unless you want to build spamc.
If you want to, safest way to do is download Microsoft Virtual Studio
(Express Edition is free of charge)

You can install gpg but don't have to. Instead you can just use the --nogpg
flag.
As already mentioned a few times, there aren't any rules delivered together
with SA source since 3.3.
You have to run sa-update in any case.
Try this to install the "default" rules:
sa-update.bat --nogpg -v --channel updates.spamassassin.org --updatedir
