There is nothing noobish about asking how a service works.
If you don't ask, you will not know ;)

Also, if you can use circle in your country I would advise you to buy through them (I am guessing you want to buy using a VISA/Credit card).
If you can use circle then you willl save on $/€ -> SLL -> BTC transactions fees.
So it will be: $/€ -> BTC fees only

How do I buy btc with Virwox? I have already deposited into my account but I can't find any option for buying btc. Help me out

follow these simple steps :

1. Goto USD/SLL (If you deposit USD, for EUR EUR/SLL, GBP GBP/SLL, CHF CHF/SLL is suitable)
2. Sell your USD for Linden Dollars
3. Goto BTC/SLL
4. Sell Linden Dollars for Bitcoins
5. Withdraw your coins

If you're a newbie then it takes about 72 hours to get your coins out.
After 4-5 withdrawals all withdrawals will be instant.
Withdrawal fee : 0.01 BTC
Minimum Withdrawal : 0.02 BTC

and one more, do not withdraw the bitcoin after purchase if you're newbie,
better wait 1-2 days,
or your account will be banned. ( based on my account :( )

Def. Have to wait 1-2 days, Virwox is not playing around when it comes to banning accounts.  Best of Luck Noob.

How do I know if they have frozen the account? I withdrew right away (before seeing these responses) hope I get my money back, then

Well, in my own experience, they don't ban your account, they just freeze it... I did exactly the same (open new account, deposit paypal, exchange $ to LLD, exchange LLD to BTC, withdraw BTC).
They flagged my account, and froze the withdrawal for 30 hours untill they had a chance to verify everyting. Once everything was verified, they unfroze the withdrawal...

End of the story: it took me about 31 hours to exchange paypal to BTC, but in the end, i got my BTC

Update: my BTC was just sent to my wallet, 36 hours later. Not bad, hope it is quicker in the future.

I'm not completely sure that's normal  :( . I think my withdrawal was "frozen", but i don't recall being "banned"... Better contact their support to find out what's happening!

it will be quicker in your next transactions. AFAIK the only delay between buying BTC in virwox to withdrawal is when it is your first time, after that, everything will be instant

That's natural I think, that's for avoid a fake account.
Most all exchanger which have PayPal option must verified the account first.
