for about a week surfing has been strange.Google and altavista are no shows and if i type a specific site into the browser a site called namesdirect.com often replaces the site i expect.Surfing is also slower and freezes sometimes too. Any ideas if this is a virus and if so how i get rid?

You may have this:
trojan.qhosts

If so, use their removal tool and follow the instructions to fix the registry and hosts file.
