Your fstab entry seems to indicate that it allow "other" write permissions. Try unmounting it and remounting it manually as a test. First try "umask=000".
sudo umount /dev/sdb2
sudo mount /mnt/win_d
ls -ld /mnt/win_d
For a globally writable vfat partition, I would use "dmask=000,fmask=111,noexec,noatime" instead of "umask=000".
You can also use the "uid=<username>,gid=<groupname>" options to make yourself the owner of the partition. For removable usb drives, I use this with the UUID number for the device and the user option as well.
