I assume if you are reading this you are tired of seeing Internet Explorer eat up CPU cycles on your Citrix farm, hurting other users experience. I usually prefer to keep the browser out of the Citrix Session for security reasons, however in some cases this is not possible.
Log on, fire up IE11, and then click on the Tools icon, select Manage Add-Ons from the menu, and click on Tracking Protection in the list of Add-On Types.
Click on Add List from the dialog box, and close the Manage Add-ons dialog and restart your browser to begin testing.
Now it’s up to you to decide the method of deploying these settings. I will cover doing this with Group Policy Preferences – but there’s probably a multitude of ways to get this done, choose the one that’s easiest for your own environment.
On a server with the same OS as your Citrix farm, configure the settings and then export the settings to be able to import into the next step.
So we need to copy out the .tpl file from the testing user profile and copy it in when the user logs in to your farm.
Make sure that the Type for the Path value is correctly set to be REG_EXPAND_SZ rather than just REG_SZ.
I am still testing these settings, but I am hopeful they will have a positive impact on IE performance and security.
