I feel your pain, but you currently have no options that won't result in you violating your company policies.
Unless you want to research how to make an installer for Windows and contribute that to Netbeans. Does this daemon block running Java code that you write? What if you write a command line tool that you launch with java -jar ? Does that get blocked? Because that is basically how you would start NetBeans from a zip download.
