I am hoping I can upgrade it to a Celeron D.
If there is a website that lists them please give me a link!

How can I find how many sockets I have?

I changed The processor to a regular Celeron just to see if it worked and it did, but it was worse than the Pentium III (3) that was originally in it so I put it back.

Celeron D if I recall right is Pentium 4 class, then you can't.
Pentium 3 have no way to upgrade. Even the PSU is dead-end in its era, let along mobo and SDRAM. There were only few cross-class upgrades ever, and they were very long ago.

Upgrading to a Celeron would be a waste of money. Celeron is a really bad processor with a small cache. You shoud really upgrade to atleast a P4. A core2duo would be even better, tho i doubt that your motherboard supports it.

Sorry, Jeb, your Northbridge/Southbridge chipset's only support Pent.3,(plus the cpu socket is different, more pins. You probably have a 370 socket) Check this page/s from Hardwaresecrets.com:
