Installable via
sudo apt-get install icewm

then

sudo apt-get install icewm-themes (to get a few really common interfaces).

One that is even more interesting is rox-session. You will have to 
download it from source though, go to freshmeat.net and search for rox

But to try it's file browser (which works well with Icewm and xfce). install

sudo apt-get install rox-filer
