Default Making XP desktop look like Win98

I have used Win98 since 98. I really didn't care to upgrade, but it
seems there's just too much stuff that dont work in 98 anymore. I
just bought another (used) computer with XP installed, and will keep
my Win98 computer as it is. That way I can use either one. The old
one was too slow for XP and dual booting seemed like a hassle to
setup. So, now I just have 2 computers.

Anyhow, I recall someone long ago saying there's a way to make XP look
and act like Win98. I really dont care to have to get used to a new
look, and XP has too much junk I dont care to use anyhow, like that
dog cartoon. Not only do I not want that stuff, but I have always
believed that any computer should use it's power for tasks, not
unneeded toys, which is one reason I never load anything not required
by the OS into memory upon booting. I dont even run automatic virus
scans. I do it manually. I dont run screen savers or any of that
junk.

So, what's the method to make XP look like Win98?

Thanks

Jerome
