First, you need an antivirus program for each OS. I use and recommend the free Microsoft Security Essentials to my clients (and all are using it). I have a similar setup with Vista 32 bit one one hard drive and Win 7 64 bit on a separate hard drive and a dual boot setup.
In reference to the memory, if you have a 32 bit OS you will see something less than 4GB of RAM - how much less depends on your hardware. Generally it's in the 3 to 3.5GB range. Same way with a Win 7 32 bit OS system.
Windows handles the memory and there is no need to "tweak", and tweaking can even be detremental to the system operation.
