Since bitcoin transaction is not reversible, there is no way you can get it back. I am sorry for your loss. Have you recently downloaded any programs or strange files to your machine?

A hacker somehow got inside your PC and got hold of your keys/wallet and send your funds to himself, through either a virus/malware. Do a clean install of OS you're using and next time just avoid keeping your funds in a computer that stays on-line. Read about cold storage https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cold_storage to learn about how to keep your funds more secure.

Maybe download a virus deletion program too. I'd recommend to completely format your pc.

and how do you spend them safely, witouth importing it(which in this case will result in a loss, because is pc is infected)? the problem is always one, having a safe machine in the first place, no matter what kind of wallet you have, they are all unsafe if your device is infected(even encrypted yes, because if you need to spend bitcoin with an encrypted wallet you need to unencrypt it)

I'm rebooting my PC right now. But if I keep whole file of a coin in %appdata%, there's no risk that the virus survive ? Should I just keep the wallet.dat ?

The only way to be sure you removed it is to reinstall. When you have more than a few coins, use cold storage.

How do I do to recover my wallet.dat in this case ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) ? first export private keys. Print on paper or make foto with (non-internet) camera. clean all USB memories, external HDDs and all other flash memory or memory you used on this computer. Remember: If you burned CDs/DVDs in recent times: DONT USE ANYMORE! then totally clean the computer -> format HDD SECURE! (= more than 5 time with rewrite on HD) & install SECURE OS (NO windows). If you use again windows because you have to, make sure its first secured before you install anything. DO NOT USE PRECOMPILED wallets of other coins, etc. Always try compile your things alone (from REVIEWED sourcecodes only) if its from not trusted developer. Most keylogger, wallet-stealer, etc. ARE NOT IN virus-database. In many cases its only small backdoor added to sourcecode of cryptocoins-apps, wallets & Co. TRUST NOBODY!when the secure & clean computer is ready you simple install BTC wallet (ONLY from TRUSTED source) and import the keys. sorry for your loss!

Just make a new address on your fresh formated pc so you'll have a safe wallet. Electrum does not use wallet.dat but a seed that let's you recover your whole wallet information.
