Which of the following features of IE prevent users from a type of scam that entice a user to disclose personal information such as social security number, bank account details, or credit card number?

Pop-up blocker suppresses unwanted browser popup windows but does not analyze or block fraudulent sites designed to steal personal information.

Cookies are small data files stored by websites on the user's computer for session or preference tracking - they are not a security feature that detects or prevents phishing scams.

Content Advisor is a parental control tool that filters web content based on ratings categories such as violence or adult content, not a mechanism for detecting identity-theft scams.

The Phishing Filter in Internet Explorer is specifically designed to detect and block phishing sites - fraudulent pages that impersonate legitimate organizations to trick users into revealing sensitive personal information such as SSNs, bank details, or credit card numbers. It works by checking URLs against a Microsoft-maintained list of known phishing sites and using heuristic analysis to flag suspicious pages with a warning. This directly addresses the social engineering threat described in the question.
