In the documentation for gparted there is a deactivate button when changing the swap partition. So this functionality is already built in.
You could also open a terminal and run:
sudo swapoff -a
This would only be required if you are going to use another liveCD (i.e DSL) to do the partitioning. You can also do this with the gparted liveCD or just use the interface to turn swap off.
Once you bring the liveCD up you will have a better picture of what is going on with your system. Also the online docs for gparted liveCD are pretty descriptive.
Also the gparted liveCD is only 30Mb and I think you said you have 400M ram so you should have no problem with swap. Just use the deactivate when you do it.
