It has to be started up on the internet once for updates and activation.
After that you can start in offline mode.
If you did the full install off the dvd you should only have a few megs to download
I would recommend just leaving it update overnight.
edit: Also it DOES say you need an internet connection it also STRONGLY recommends a broadband connection. Read the box next time.
