Restricted Sites Protection

SpywareBlaster's Restricted Sites protection provides one main option:

Restrict the actions of ad / tracking / potentially unwanted sites in Internet Explorer

Adds sites to the Restricted Sites zone, to restrict the actions of the sites in Internet Explorer.
Sites on this Block List may:

Attempt to download/install spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, or other potentially unwanted ActiveX/software.

Attempt to use cookies (or other methods) to uniquely identify and/or track a user.

Attempt to exploit browser vulnerabilities for potentially malicious / unwanted purposes.

Attempt to use browser functions to force advertisements on the user (that may also try to force the download/installation of unwanted software).

Attempt to lead / convince the user into taking an action (such as downloading software or providing personal information) that may be potentially unwanted, by providing misleading information, a lack of information, etc.

Restricted Sites Protection only works with Internet Explorer.
