For windows, there are a couple options for reading and a couple for for r/w

Explore2fs - reads ext2/3 and ReiserFS - I used this at one time,  it works.
Just a program, not a driver (so no explorer/system access, no drive letter)

Linux Reader for Windows - Haven't tried it, but diskinternals is
good. read-only

ext2 file system driver - Apparently reads and writes ext2/3, is a driver
website not that clear

Ext2 Installable File System for Windows - read/write driver
I haven't used it, but I have heard a lot about it. Works pretty well,
apparently.
Mounts ext3 in ext2 mode

I don't think there is any way to access LVM2 volumes from Windows
