If you sent Bitcoin to the wrong address, I'm afraid you're not getting it back.

There's no definitive "Bitcoin team" - there's the developers, Bitcoin Core, but they can't decide to override a specific transaction as there are no third parties which have power over them (this is a huge part of the reason for Bitcoin's existence).

You can try sending a very low amount from blockchain.info to that wrong address and send a message to them to tell that you wrongly send them that amount and you need it back.
Chances are almost 0 to get your money back if it really was a malware on your system but this is the only thing you can try to get your money back.

Most likely you have sent your coins to the malware creators. Do you think they will return your coins?

Make sure you double check your send addresses, especially the last few characters (these are check sum). Some addresses have very similar beginning generated using vanitygen. However, the checksum will most likely be different.

You are saying that you have send the BTC through polo exchange wallet to wrong address and it is telling unspent , first thing if you are sending from your polo exchange address even if get return but you wont receive it as exchange output address are only for once use and any btc send back to that address wont give you back. That is why it is told that send the bitcoin first to your wallet address and then do what ever you want. So in any condition you wont be able to receive back your bitcoins. Sorry to say this.

I don't think there is a way to get your bitcoins back

Sorry OP because bitcoin is not owned or operated by anyone, sort of a bit like email then the closest thing to customer support for bitcoin related problems is probably right here or at forum.bitcoin.com,

Just our of curiosity can you tell us when you purchased the account you are posting from?

If the coins were sent to the actual malware creators, sorry but you are not getting anything back.

Looks like you are missing out something HUGE here about bitcoins. Bitcoin is decentralized i.e no one controls it, owns it or has any kind of power on it. Therefore, there is no such thing as "bitcoin team".

The reason all of us are into bitcoins is actually because of this reason.

Next time check carefully the address you are sending to.

What kind of malware was it? I am also using Windows and am afraid if this could infect my system also.
Can someone please elaborate how to prevent this from happening?

That's why you need to check the bitcoin recipient adress all the time to make sure if it's identical with the one you're sending to. Unfortunately, no way to get them back.

If you have malware, as others have stated, you won't get your coins back, there is no one who can "fix it" for you.

As far as the "maleware" problem, if it was "femaleware" what would've happened.

Thanks for sharing this information but it is wrong to say that it cant be fixed.The same article that you direct me to explain the solution.
Considering that the risk level of this trojan is "very low,” Symantec claims that it is "easy" to remove. The security company has already created and deployed the first threat definition for their software, which will detect and remove Trojan.Coinbitclip.

Fixing the computer to remove the virus is completely different from returning the bitcoins.

Removing the virus may be easy, getting the people who stole the bitcoins to return them will be very difficult since there is no central authority to contact who can "fix it" which was what OP asked.

It can really be hard for reversals of payments even if done unintentionally or something not a big fault of our own. You are right, Bitcoin is not built for reversals just like what we can experienced in PayPal or similar payment gateway as they really have people working to serve their members. This is the reason why we have to be careful in sending our Bitcoins and we have to triple check if the address we are using is the one where the funds should be going. It would be a big headache and can mean saying goodbye to our funds.
