Are you sure these are (still) viruses?   Some commercial A-V products encrypt 
a virus sample after detecting it, so as to render it harmless on a system, 
and of this is no longer the original virus which you would expect to be 
recognised by ClamAV.

If you really do have genuine virus samples which are not recognised by ClamAV 
then please submit them on the webform available from the ClamAV website at 
http://clamav.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/sendvirus.cgi
