Old DOS games on xp

Some time ago I posted a thread asking how to play old DOS games on XP since XP doesn't seem to like them (i.e. Doom, Seawolf and others). Someone reccommended a freeware program that allowed me to play my old games on XP in what appeared to be a compatible environment created by that freeware program. I've very recently caught a killer virus and had to rebuild my harddrive and I can't find my notes or remember the name of that piece of software. Can anyone help please?
