I don't think xp requires ’activation' per se, just a valid key (which it doesn't check online).

Windows update will want to install Windows Genuine Advantage, or whatever it's called. That shit was annoying as heck.

IIRC there's some relatively easy trick to disable it (registry hack?). Download sp3, disconnect from nw, apply sp3, disable WGA, reconnect.
