temp files flagged by other Antivirus

I have a practice of running a scan of where I put new files (I put all the newly created files/downloads/etc all in one folder with subfolders) on a regular basis, and the other antivirus is complaining about the temp files being trojan or otherwise infected. Clamwin found no instances of things in any of the scans (which isn't a problem as I expect there are discrepencies in detection mechanism and such different files gets picked up as being infected/false positive/etc. )

I have also read in the forums that the temp files created by clamwin is a result of it trying to unpack files to scan. The question is, if I am trying to trace back to see which archive I need to rescan with other AV programs (the folder is rather huge due to discrepencies in frequencies of scanning and moving the stuff), can clamwin be a bit more informative as in which temp file corresponds to which archive (put it in a log or put it in the filename?), or is there a way to read the file names to determine which archive it corresponds to?
