If you need to use a WinXP server then Xen can't help you at the
moment. Maybe look at Windows Terminal Service.

Sorry, I meant LTSP.  Linux Terminal Server Project.

Note, regardless encapsulating the application is not a
system/kernel/Xen level thing.  Its something managed by the OS.

Xen is unlikely to every "encapsulate applications".

Running multiple clients/applications from one server is call Thin
