When I first bought XP I was in the habit of doing a wipe reinstall every few months. When I had done this a few times I was told that I had to call MS for activation, which I did. I got a very long SN. I haven't run into that lately although I still do the wipe reinstall from time to time. As for updated, I don't think that MS will refuse updates even before XP has been activated. They don't want insecure XP installs out there causing even more of a problem.
