Reviews of download blocker:
hi i wanted to ask does this blocks .swf type of malicious downloads ??
For configuring which file extensions you would like to block, create the keys if you don't have them in "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\3rdparty\extensions\kippogcnigegkjidkpfpaeimabcoboak\policy" and use a String named "Config" to tweak its JSON configuration settings. It worked very well for me. I would suggest making an additional filter that would block any file (regardless of extension) containing a pattern (like every single file with the name *chrome* somewhere in its name) Otherwise excellent job.
