Wesmosis 2.5 (named after the author) is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by Wesam A. Khalfalla. It released on August 28, 2007, and was added to the archive on November 25, 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO. It adds one new theme (and visual style), and many wallpapers. It comes with many new programs and updates, along with one cursor set. It comes with registry tweaks. It comes with its own WPI. The autorun is an edited version of the stock XP autorun, with the strings changed. It is unattended, and preactivated.

A bunch of links to mostly Arabic and Windows customization-adjacent websites get dropped to the Favorites directory.

The ISO was made using nLite.
