Security Software for Old Computer

Hi, I'm running W2K on a Pentium2/266 and I'm wondering what my best option for security software would be considering the system's speed. I know Norton 2005 would be overkill. Are there any current products that work OK on old systems? I can get a copy of Norton Internet Security 2002 or 2003, assuming they come with the virus definitions, if that would be a good idea, i just don't want to slow the system down to a crawl.
Thanks!
