Anyone know of any sites where I can download an ISO of XP unpatched?

Answering this question can lead to a ban and other ethical issues. So don't ask, by asking this question you are endangering folks who may decide to anwer.
All I can tell is it's not available from MS without a special request, however last time I've seen contents of a volume licensing section on MS web-site it had XP SP2 32-bit and XP 64-bit SP1 available for download.

I should have been more clear, meant a site that I could pay and download the ISO.
However with my MTA I was able to access a site through my local college and download a copy of it including the activation key. I have access to almost all MS ISOs including server etc free and access is granted for 2 years I believe so all is good.
Fully legit might I add as the college pays for the licensing I believe in order for students to download the OS they require in order to practice on as part of their studies.

Yeah, but the ISO you downloaded is almost certainly SP2, i.e. patched up to SP2. I thought you asked for unpatched XP the way it was in 2002.

You are probably right you know but I guess I'll just have to work with the tools I have access to but thanks for the heads up!

Found a VM called metasploitable so do the job can now actually just remove XP.
