I don't know the exact release date for "Little Lies" (it should be in the liner notes to 'The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac' though), but I believe it was available as a single pretty much within the same week or so as it was announced Lindsey had left the band.
Of course, radio had started to play it a little before that, and I believe MTV was already playing the video before too. It always seemed that radio and MTV started playing the singles before you could actually buy them.

Yes, there is actually a video for "Everywhere." The band (only Christine, John & Mick) is seen very briefly, as the storyline (based on Alfred Noyes' 'The Highwayman') takes centerstage.
There's another edit of the video though, which focuses only on the storyline with no band appearances.
I'm not sure if anyone on the net has it up for download. I don't believe I've ever seen it on anyone's site.

At the moment, the only officially released concert DVD to feature the entire 'Rumours'-era lineup, is 'The Dance'... FM's 1997 reunion concert which was first broadcast on MTV.
You should be able to find it anywhere that sells music-related DVDs.
I highly recommend it, though others feel it's a little too "polished" (but, then, this lineup of FM is known for their polished sound).

"Second Hand News" has been performed on several tours. In fact, every Mac tour in which Lindsey has participated since the release of 'Rumours,' has featured "Second Hand News" in the setlist.
There's a really terrific live version of it on the band's 2004 DVD/CD combo, 'Live In Boston' (which features Lindsey, Stevie, John & Mick in the lineup).

Yep, that's Mick! Some of the other guys are Bob Welch and Bob Weston (both former Fleetwood Mac guitarists), Walter Egan (best known for his hit "Magnet & Steel"), and other friends and associates of Lindsey and Fleetwood Mac.
