F-Prot vs ClamAV

In the syslog:maillog, F-Prot's virus lines look like this:
MailScanner[16841]: 
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/16841/./9FAB36BC95/patch.exe  Infection: 
W32/Dumaru.A at mm

So, grep for ' Infection: ' and pipe that through something that will group 
and count the viruses.  I used:
'| perl -ne '/\sInfection:\s(.*)$/; print "$1\n";' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n 
| tac'

For ClamAV, as the first step, I grep'd for 'FOUND$' and piped it through:
'|perl -ne '/:\s(\S+)\sFOUND/; print "$1\n";' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | 
tac'
