Alureon Virus on My Computer

Here's the thing.

Other night, using the computer - on a totallylookslike page - computer just shuts down. Totally shuts down. Then it restarts. So I used the Windows Defender program [as I dont have any other virus software], and it comes up with Alureon.gen!k

It says it removed it but it is still there because I actually tried to shut down the computer the other day and it said STILL RUNNING ALUREON, SHUT DOWN OR WAIT FOR PROGRAM TO STOP RUNNING?

The other thing is that now I can't get on the internet via the computer. I am having to use my brothers computer to get online. It shows my internet connection as available and connected - yet on the little WLAN icon, it shows an exclamation point and says that I am online but on a public network. Would not let me sign on on AOL or bring up explorer.

I shut off my wireless adapter so that it hopefully keeps anyone from stealing my data, etc for the time being. But dont know what to do next. I am assuming maybe I should go to the store and buy a McAfee software and download it and run it, but unsure if that will work with this vius already there or also if that removes this type of virus.

Any help would be great. Will check back here later. Thanks in advance guys,
