Gblock VS ShellNewHandler

• Spy Pixel protection
  Spy pixel tracking is a sneaky technique based on adding an invisible 1x1 image, known as a "tracking pixel," to an email. When you open the email, this pixel sends information back to the sender, revealing details like when you opened it, where you were, and what device you used. All of this is done without your knowledge or consent, making it a serious privacy concern. Gblock detects and blocks tracking pixels, providing complete protection against spy pixel tracking.
• Tracking links protection
  Link tracking involves adding custom tracking parameters to URLs, such as "?utm_source=newsletter", or embedding unique tracking codes. Some email marketing tools take this a step further by using URL shorteners to obscure the final destination, making it impossible to remove tracking parameters. Similar to spy pixels, tracking links can expose your location, device details, and other personal information. Gblock protects you from tracking links in two ways: Stripping all known tracking parameters from URLs, and using our proxy server to follow email links, masking your IP address and fully anonymizing your activity. Our proxy also caches responses, so if a tracking link is shared among multiple users, we already know the final destination and can serve it directly without accessing the tracking link. We are confident this would cover you for 99% of the cases.
• Automated tracker detection
  Other Browser extensions rely on static lists that require frequent manual updates. But as trackers constantly evolve, this outdated approach becomes less effective. Only Gblock offers a truly intelligent solution with automated tracker detection. Instead of fixed lists, our advanced system dynamically identifies and flags new trackers in real-time. The moment Gblock encounters a new tracker, it analyzes its behavior and reports it to our server—ensuring that future emails containing the same tracker are automatically blocked.

• This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?

  I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
