First defragment Windows few times and after that shrink Windows partition with Gparted live Cd witch you can download from http://gparted.sourceforge.net/.On free space expand Ubuntu partition.

Or use the Live Ubuntu install cd it already have the gparted utility... not need to burn and to use the gparted cd... to resize your parti tions.
