It depends on wich anti-virus you are using but usually it can be found in a console that you can disable it or you might just want to uninstall it from control panel then add/remove programs
That varies from package to package and company to company. Most programs have a dialog box that will let you choose options for the software (look in the Start Menu).

Other than that, I think that you have to uninstall it. But only do that if you have the means to reinstall it; you don't want a computer that can't handle viruses.
