Sorry you are having these problems....

Just booting from and running the Ubuntu live CD should not make any changes to your hard drive. Did you click the install icon on the desktop while you were running the live CD at any point?
Try this:
Boot the Ubuntu live CD. Open a terminal (applications > accessories > terminal) and run:

sudo fdisk -l
This will list your partitions and will at least verify that Windows is still on your hard drive.

And welcome to the Ubuntu forums!
