I don't understand what the fuss is.

clamAV (like all other AVs) produces a report stating what the malware is. In the case of Phishing, clamAV tags them as "*.Phishing.*".

Sooooo, change your "blocking agents" to ignore such matches.... Don't be surprised if they don't have the option, but if you use an Open Source Content Filter like Qmail-Scanner or Amavis, then you can change the code.

ClamAV's ability to block Phishing attacks makes it EXTREMELY attractive IMHO.
