Default Hacker Alert - I have been hit with a VIRUS/TROJAN - A FIX

While downloading a song from Limewire this eve I saw the urgent msg to contact efreeclub.com and I did. I then got a little sign that seemed to indicate someone knew all about me (ISP etc) and it said "yes! you've been hacked!" I thought I had adequate security, obviously not, I have installed new security but I wanted to know what I can do now that the hacker seems to be already in, and what is the hacker able to do? Why is this person able to get into my computer thru Limewire? Do I have to throw the computer out now? (would rather not if possible).
If I have posted this in the wrong place please accept my apologies, and tell me where I need to post it (I am new at this).
I love Limewire and would like to continue happily using it.
Thanks,
Carol
