Ali:

When you access the internet from Linux (or whatever OS) from within 
VirtualBox, the Internet connection used is part of the emulation 
package, and is not (I believe) a valid test of accessing the Internet 
from a stand-alone OS not run in VirtualBox.

In your case, the actual Internet connection is that of Windows 7, with 
some emulation software connecting it to your Linux within VirtuaBox.
