The main ClamAV-users list is a better place to ask that.

You'll want to post more than just the file list. You should dig up the 
report indicating what was found in those files, or rescan them.

It appears the infected files are being renamed (they may have been 
moved and/or permissions altered as well). As far as I know, that isn't 
something the official win32 port of ClamAV does, so you are likely 
using a third party port of ClamAV and/or some other tool that 
incorporates ClamAV. The organization that produced the software ought 
to be able to tell you how to reverse the quarantine process.
