I've only seen it twice recently..
One was a damaged Netsky/SomeFool that only Symantecs signature picked
up (missed by Clam, Sophos and Bitdefender), but as its damaged I don't
really care.
The other was a Sober-G that Bitdefender caught but none of the others
had signatures for at that time.

I must say that I have often seen Clam catch things that Symantec misses
(and sometimes the others miss too).  Of the four I run (in parallel)
the one that has most often missed new viruses is Symantec.
