Is there a D in Microsoft?

Walter have you done a deal with the Devil :)

Microsoft Liked D so much they decided to name their next generation 
Programming Language after it.

In case anyone is wondering why I would be reading this in the first 
place, I was tipped off a few days ago by a colleague who asked me if 
Walter had sold D to Microsoft, but I could not find this story until now.

Is D protected in some way against this?
