Boot from the live cd and use gparted to delete the windows partition, then 
move the ubuntu ext3 partition "down" the disk (to the left) to cover the 
space previously used by windows, then expand the ubuntu ext3 partition up 
to cover the gap created between it and the swap partition. 

Job done.

Cheers,
Al.
