Some game slowdowns?..2010 anti virus

Hi

Right now I'm playing Torchlight. a not very demanding game and i get some mini freezes during play..even with anti virus disabled..Runs a lot better with anti virus uninstalled..Same withother games...I have xp and a 2,66ghh intel cpu...Nvidia 6200 card and a gig of ram..Not much of a computer I know.....

 

I know on the reviews Norton 2009 is supposed to be light on resources......Not too sure about 2010...It was a free upgrade from 9 for me. i know they make a gamers edition too....Is Norton as light on the system as the reviews say?

 

I will listen to any advice
