Perhaps it's time to bring FuzzyOCR up-to-date...?

Is this something I need to manually update or something that needs updating in the SA distribution?

FuzzyOCR was a SA plugin a few years back. It would pass images through OCR and, IIRC, pull words out of them into the generated body that SA scans.

Spammers moved away from putting their spams into images, so it fell out of use, and I don't think it works with the current release of SA. Also, Passing all attached images through OCR is a fairly heavy-weight process.

Now spammers seem to be moving back towards image spams, at least to a degree.
