I have a server running on ubuntu (or xubuntu. I can't quite figure out which. I installed xubuntu but when I did an upgrade it installed GNOME, so...). It has SSH on it, and I log in with that all the time. But what I want to do is log in with a GUI, from Windows XP, since that's what my other computer, as well as all the other computers I use, run on. Is there any way to do this?

Wen you use ssh, try the -X option. I think that forwards X to the connecting machine.
