Most of the additional positives are _probably_ phishing attempts. Clam is fairly aggressive at detecting phishing attempts, but FProt doesn't even try.
... because F-Prot is a virus scanner, not anti-spam.
If that really is why ClamAV appeared to detect more viruses, this would definitely explain the perceived difference. I am unaware of any true viruses that get past F-Prot that ClamAV detects.
