I have a Dell computer with windows. Recently, my computer has gotten very slow and even freezes and doesn't unfreeze. I'm guessing its a virus. Since my computer just freezes and wont load anything, how do i install a program to remove the virus, and if i can't do that how do you just completely clear my hard drive?

May not be a virus. Reinstall the system. That is how I take care of viruses because I don’t trust anti-virus software.
Ok, you do have a DELL and there was a Microsoft security update that failed on the DELLs and required an immediate new release.
In the least, try running Windows Update and then Check for Updates. Hopefully, this is all that you’re experiencing.
Cheers!
In Control Panel check Automatic Updates are turned on, if they are turned off it might be a virus. Turn them on and download the Malicious Software Removal Tool then re-start your system, it will stay as a black background with white text while it searches, if it finds something it will remove it then tell you when you log on, it has worked wonders for me! Alternatively you can download Spybot Search & Destroy which has also worked wonders too.

what you do is : you take your head and bash it INTO A CONTAINER OF BROKEN GLASS, REPEATEDLY.THEN take a crap, reach in the toilet, and RUB your POOP ALL OVER your BODY. then, take salt and rub it vigorously INTO your EYES. get old rusty nails, make GIANT tears in your skin with them and RUB LEMON JUICE ALL OVER THE FRESH WOUNDS.after, tie yourself onto the front bumper of a giant truck, and have a driver drive to the desert and PLOW you into cacti.and if you survive , take a dirty hobo’s nails and have him scratch your eyes open, this all worked for me, i hope it does the same for you:)
