You can do this a couple ways, but they both involve the use of WSUS (Windows Server Update Services).

1st solution:
Create a security group in active directory called "Windows XP machines" or something similar. Make all of your Windows XP computers members of this security group, and apply WSUS group policy filtering to just this security group.

2nd solution:
Create a custom group in WSUS itself called "Windows XP machines" or something similar. Move all Windows XP computers to this group from within WSUS. Approve the installation of the particular hotfixes that you want for only this group of computers. The other computers that are unassigned will not receive any updates unless you approve them for "All computers".
