Block malicious files from being unintentionally downloaded. Useful as an additional layer of security to protect against accidental clicks.

Source of malicious file types used: http://cfoc.org/windows-file-extension-list-types-of-files-exploited-by-malware

In corporate environments this can be deployed via Group Policy, extensions are not automatically enabled in Incognito mode so we advise disabling incognito mode via group policy too.
