There is a tool called Rational Rose that is the industry standard for stuff like this. But it does cost a lot, so if you are a college student, check your computer science labs for it. I know we have it and will have to use it here at UTD. I think now it's part of a bigger suite called Rational (by IBM, since they bought them)
I believe Visual Studio .NET will do it if you have one of the more recent versions of Visio installed.

You need the Architect version of Visual Studio and then it comes with a special version of Visio. If you have an MSDN license you should have it (I've never used it though).

Just use the totally free Doxygen!? The UML that is generated is not "perfect", but acceptably good and interactive: you can zoom in on objects and see more details, etc.

Windows client for Doxygen:
