Well, AV software usually impacts file access times, sometimes hard, but not usually by that sort of factor. Usually like 20 to 100 percent increase in file access times, judging from a study I read, which also lines up roughly with my own experiences.
Some details that might help- Is the app client/server, being executed from a share, passing data to something else, or what? In essence, what is it doing on the network? What sort of network? I would assume 10/100 ethernet, but assumptions are bad. What version(s) of windows? If there are multiple versions, do you see the issue on all of them? A general idea would be to run a packet sniffer, like Ethereal, to see what traffic is being passed.
