According to 
https://www.securiteinfo.com/attaques/hacking/stats_malwares_internet.shtml 
(updated daily), ClamAV official detects 10% of daily malwares, 
SaneSecurity detects 10% of daily malwares, SecuriteInfo.com detects 93% 
of daily malwares.

SaneSecurity is very good and very reliable to detect spams, or malware 
in mail flow (exe in zip, js in zip ...). But SecuriteInfo.com is the 
best to detect malware files.

I personnaly recommand SecuriteInfo.com signatures for malware hunting:
