Are you referring to this OS? (distrowatch.com/images/cgfjoewdlbc/lps.png) - Apparently it uses ICEWM for its window manager. – fossfreedom♦ Nov 7 '12 at 16:47

enter image description here I managed it my own way

First I went to Gnome-Classic Desktop Session

Then I Deleted the Bottom Panel By ALT+Right Click on the panel and selecting delete this panel.

After that 

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool

Next step download this https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxwaHJhbmtkYWNoaWNrZW58Z3g6NTZhNTNlOTdlM2I0YTUyNQ

and follow this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4StlvX-kOg&feature=related

and then go to Gnome-tweak-settings >themes and change everything to xp

Last step Change your wallpaper.

That's only for someone who needs a windows xp similar Desktop session

This isn't end yet , I still needed the convert to the Windows 95 theme. enter image description here IceWM will be great but again , The fonts always seems too small when I get to that session.
