FuzzyOCR Words List

2006-12-11 Thread Nigel Kendrick 
Hi Guys,

We have recently been suffering from tons of inline image spam but this has
been pretty much killed by installing FuzzyOCR. Over the last week I have
been adding to the FuzzyOCR words file, and recently went on a Web search to
see what other lists I could find - to my surprise there didn't seem to be
much out there, which I take as either:

1) No one wants to publish their list for fear of giving the 'enemy' a heads
up.
or
2) No one has bothered to share yet.

I can see the argument for #1, but I also remember the argument on the SARE
site that you can see their rules and so can the spammers but it makes
little difference.

Anyway, I am happy to publish my list here for scrutiny if anyone thinks
it's worth it, and at the same time perhaps others will?

Any thoughts?

Cheers

NK

Hi,

Recently I've added these words to FuzzyOcr.words:
GALROE
VXBX
VOXBOX
TELECOM
maku
arss
PRGJ

May be it's a good idea to keep such updated lists or may be add to FuzzyOcr 
the ability to fetch updated lists from the web, but this should go to FuzzyOcr 
list, don't you think?
