Basically, you slipstream all the updates on to one DVD, and your good to go. (There was a program that did this for you, but, I forgot the name of it.)
No idea about how activation is done these days for XP.
 
You should still be able to use WSUS Offline Updater, just have to make sure that you use and older one that they have the xp support in. thing version 9.0 or so was the last that did.

Or the on in the linked article, but I have never used that one, but one I have used on occasion is WUD Windows Update Downloaded (http://www.windowsupdatesdownloader.com/) just grab the program and the Update List and it should get you all of the updates
