Have you tried resetting or changing your XP theme via start > Control Panel > Display > Themes

You might try a Registry Cleaner such as:

Re: Theme Instead Of My Welcome Screen Help!
A Clean Install should definitely get rid of it and everything else on the partition.
A Repair Install will most likely get rid of it and leave your programs and settings intact.
