Whether you factor in the phish hits or not, ClamAV stands up very nicely to any other virus scanner. Also, many of the major commericial virus vendors are starting to scan for phishing attempts. Of the virus scanners we run, TrendMicro and McAfee, in addition to ClamAV, also block phishing e-mails and links to phishing sites. Finally, ClamAV is very well supported by the open-source community and their track-record on virus updates is at least as good as any of the commercial vendors, and I would even venture to say that they are actually better than most (at least as compared to the products we have tested it against: TrendMicro, McAfee, F-Prot, AVG, and BitDefender).
