Not quite answering your question. But perhaps you could look at moving all off D: to E: or F:. Then linux would have a whole physical drive to itself that windows wouldn't even lookat. I think windows should rename E: and F: to D: and E: on next boot up - but not totally sure. Perhaps someone else could confirm.
