Default [Fixed] Memory Usage - Mcafee Antivirus

Hi. McAfee Antivirus is using a tremendous amount of memory (the exe files). Is there anyway i can reduce the amount of memory it uses. I am on cable, running XP, 80gigs (50% free space); I maintain my pc very well using utilities and defragging. If you could help with suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.
