I just upgraded from Windows ME to Windows 2000 but now can't get my
antivirus software to work on it. Any ideas?

Get an updated antivirus software package. There's some links here for some
free alternatives though the page is generic cleaning mostly the links are
still valid for you.

Is your current anti virus compatible with to Windows 2000?
If not, you need to get a compatible version.
If so, uninstall/reinstall.

Also since this is a Windows Update newsgroup, you should ask further
questions in a Windows 2000 newsgroup:
