Why would you want to make Linux look like WinXP, Charles... It's like
disguising a modern A320 flightdeck into an old 737 Steam Gauge cockpit!

You mean that they float above your other applications? Try
rightclicking on the the screenlets, go to Options, and make sure that
they are set to "Stay Below", or words to that effect.

I think that I found what I was looking for. They are called
Screenlets, and can be found in the Ubuntu Software Centre. I
Installed it, and am running a clock, and a weather widget. The
only thing is that these widgets do not stay on the desktop, but
also show up on Firefox. How would I fix this?

Another option would be conky : http://conky.sourceforge.net/
it doesn't look remotely like vista, but it's still a nice tool.

If your distro is based on Ubuntu try:
http://hardinfo.berlios.de/HomePage
Then check in the operating section for Gnome

If it runs gnome, check out gdesklets:
http://www.gdesklets.de/ - although this project is a
bit dead.
Or you can try screenlets - also dead.

which I had just downloaded. It is called 'YLMF', is
of Chinese origin, and looks, and feels like
WinXP.This distro is based on Ubuntu 10.04, and comes
complete with Firefox 6.3, Open Office, etc. I would
like to customize the desktop to look more like
Vista, analogue clock, weather, etc. What do I need
to download?
