In the library section on the left hand side of this page click on the WindowBlinds section.

At the top of the WindowBlinds page you will find a small box called "Search". Type in the word "Luna" (without the quotes) and you will get a list of 2 pages of most of the "XP" themes that have been created.

Hope this helps

You'll also want ObjectBar https://www.stardock.com/products/objectbar/ to get the XP style taskbar and start menu. There are many different skins you can download for ObjectBar, but the XP one is included.

Don't forget about Icons. you can find Icon Packager here:

Then you will need the icons:

Just download WinStyles at www.winstyles.com. It'll take care of everything else.

Go get XP. I believe MS has finally come out with a good OS. (Fingers crossed)

It would be easier just to go get XP, There is more things you can do with XP than you can with 98, But yea to get a good look alike, get desktop x
