That Ubuntu that remains on your system is Linux bootloader, identified as GRUB. It is mostly a very little peace of software that begins soon after you start your PC, by Windows boots up. As you've most likely guess its job is to boot the operating system of your choice. For various reasons GRUB is not completely sited on any of your partitions (C:/, D:/, or what ever), a section of it's code is installed into a very small crop of "land" right in front of the initial partition, called MBR (Master Boot Record). MBR is firmly controlled by any Operating System (Windows, Linux ...) and access to it is advantaged. Due to this, WUBI, the Windows-based Ubuntu (un)Installer, probably had a problem restoring the MBR to its unique state. For me, the easiest way to repair this was to run "fixmbr" in the Recovery Console, accessible from Windows installation CDROM.
