No. That's why question marks and exclamation sign. You only should have 
ewmsplugin.

No. The ewmsplugin relies on a normal tool to download that data. This 
must be installed somewhere. Currently there are 2 options: The gnome 
downloader and the webkit-images program, which is only available as 
source.

No, you don't need webkit compiled, but a recent QT 4.4.3 installation and 
the download tool.

I made a compiled variant:

You need to copy the exe and the DLL's to a path, where Windows can find 
them (e.g. into the system directory or maybe JOSMs start directory).
