1) JVM and IIS are not equivalent. JVM is the Java Virtual Machine, used for running Java applications and IIS is Microsoft's Webserver
2) IIS is the standard webserver on a windows platform
3) You don't need IIS to open a webpage, a simple browser will do. If you mean hosting, then you don't need IIS either. You could use any number of other webservers out there
4) If I'm not mistaken, the JVM isn't part of windows, probably due to some legal issue
