If you have two scans going on - both antivirus and antispyware - yes stop them now and only do one at a time. AVG antivirus is medium-lite on the system when scanning, allowing you to work in the background during a scan easily. I bought the premium version this past year (diehard Norton antivirus user).
Your security scanners like antivirus and antispyware need their resources to do their job. What will bog things down a little is if you have good programs that are able to do "intensive scans" which means they are also scanning all zip files and compressed and hidden files. This you can choose to do once a week or at least twice a month - a full intensive scan. Viruses as opposed to spyware are going to be the ones that will infect compressed files. However, if it is a really severe spyware and coupled with a trojan or other - it too will be snooping into compressed files and attemtping to send that back to the cybercriminal on the other end.
