This uses the &zwj; (zero-width joiner) HTML entity, interspersed within words. I 
don't see any legitimate reason that these should be present for Roman charsets and 
other non-complex scripts that don't require it.  Later in the spample there is similar 
usage of the &#x200B; (zero-width space) entity. I've seen a few other examples 
with other zero-width entities, as well.

I'll see whether those can be incorporated into the existing UNICODE_OBFU_ZW rule (which of course will no longer actually be UNICODE :) )
