I can say that this does work although very strangely on my system
http://ffs.szm.sk/en/
 From the site:
"This project mission is to create file system driver for windows , that 
will read ufs partitions from FreeBSD. Currently read only operations on 
UFS1 or UFS2 , are supported."

Hope this helps,
Jonathan

(By strangely I mean I can't open a file directly with most programs, I 
can right click and do "add to archive" with 7zip (www.7zip.org I think) 
and save the archive on my desktop then open it from there.)
