I think you're not familiar enough to install something like kde3 from
sourcecode, so you should get a packaged version. Put this into your
/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://download.kde.org/stable/latest/Debian woody main
And then do a apt-get update. After that you can install KDE3 with
apt-get install kdelibs4 kdebase kdenetwork kdepim kdeaddons ...
