Help - Trojan.Sheehy

NAV detected Ramsys.exe in Windows/System. not knowing of the danger, I quarantined it. I read up on the trojan and it said DO NOT delete or quarantine it. It claimed that it deletes the entire contents of the hard drive. My Hard Drive seems fine though, but before this I was experiencing massive slowdowns and crashes. Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Update - I found that Ramsys.exe was infected with a Backdoor.Trojan virus, not Trojan.Sheehy. Very weird. It also detected winserv.exe, having a Trojan named "Trojan Horse", which is apparently Rare and infects .exe files.
