Hi Colin,

> Why does Clam not pick these viruses up?

Clam AV is signature based. If the attackers vary the codebase a bit,
then the existing signatures won't catch it. There are constant updates
to the signature database to catch all known strands, but sometimes the
newest batch sails right through until someone creates signatures for
those as well.
