Answer 2

Statically

For the C-runtime go to the project settings, choose C/C++ then 'Code Generation'. Change the 'runtime library' setting to 'multithreaded' instead of 'multithreaded dll'.
If you are using any other libraries you may need to tell the linker to ignore the dynamically linked CRT explicitly.

Answer 3

There should be checkboxes in the project - static link run-time library or something like that. Or just take dependencywalker to see what your exe depends on and transfer it to another machine along with the necessary libraries.
