Annoying isn't it?!  Windows automatically assumes that it's the only kid on
the block and overwrites your Master boot record when you install.  Anyway,
just stick your rescue disk (the one you made when you installed your
system) in and reboot; when you get back into Linux, you can configure your
lilo.conf file (found under /etc) to reflect your dual boot situation and
then run the command 'lilo' from the prompt and you should be good to go.
