Can't link to some websites from IE or Firefox

[insignia29]

I have windows XP. In the past week or so, whenever I do a search on google, yahoo, etc., I try to link to a site but all I receive is the "Internet Explorer can not display website" error page. Do I have some sort of virus on my computer?
