Running spyware protection in the background is unnessisary for almost anybody. Running a A/V (a decent one) shouldn't suck up many system resources or slow your performance.
 
Still you never know when you'll get a virus.
It could come out of no were making a good AV a nessisity.

I would never consider running a real time anti-spyware program though.
