Hi guys is there any software that will let me install windows XP onto the Mac but will also let me join that virtual machine to our domain?

Currently used boot camp to duel boot but when i want to access a windows program urgently and I'm in the mac side it's just a ball ache would love to open a window and boot up a networked XP virtual machine where I can log onto the domain etc?
 
As long as you turn on the network adapter for the virtual machine (most are by default) it should be reachable. It will have its own IP address to reach it.
 
VMware Fusion - it'll take some time to boot, but you could use a suspended VM which would be quicker.
