is it possible to get a grid proxy under Windows, without having to
install Globus?

Yes, you can use the GridShib CA to obtain a short-lived end-entity
certificate via your browser:

The EEC ends up at the same file location as a proxy, so most grid
software won't know the difference.

If you have a credential on your desktop (even a GridShib CA-issued
EEC will work) and need an actual proxy credential, you can use the
GridShib SAML Tools:

The SAML Tools are completely standalone and fairly easy to use.

Hope this helps,
Tom
