Virus Found

Hey guys, My computer has found a virus and displayed the Virus Found alert box that mcafee has.
 
The file
C:\WINDOS\SYSTEM32\wininet.dll is infected by the W32/Alemod.f.dll virus and cannot be cleaned.
 
That came inside the message box. Problem is I cannot clean or quarantine the virus and that alert box keeps popping up... what do i do?
 
PS. Sorry for double posting... I have no idea how it happened.

    After that is complete

    Go here and download Hijackthis

    http://dsvs.org/5/HijackThis.exe


    Save it in a convenient permanent folder such as C:\\HJT\\, double click HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that, save the log, Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents AT THE LINK BELOW

    and include a description of the problem along with your log


    Please do not be tempted to "fix" on your own. Hijackthis is a very powerful tool, if used incorrectly can cause system problems

    Thanks Bamajim,

    It's a shame I decided to reboot my computer, had I waited a bit longer to see your message I wouldn't have lost so much data. Either way, I thank you for your response to my virus detection.
