The OP seems to have two requirements:
1. To run Debian Live with xfce desktop and clamav.
2. To have the most up-to-date packagae versions possible.
Personally I would forget about a customised Debian Live and follow
David's suggestion to install Debian on a USB stick. Unstable can be
installed to a stick with the mini.iso from
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
