This is a simple guide for those of you who are extremely paranoid of getting IP logged.
Step One: Do not click on any shortened links from any one you do not know. This includes shorteners such as goo.gl or adf.ly.
Step Two: Always check what you are clicking on websites. Someone can easily replace the text of a link anywhere including the forums and TeamSpeak. For example:
This link: https://www.google.com (https://www.youtube.com) may appear to be a link to google.com, however upon clicking it, you can clearly see that it goes to youtube.com.
Checking links you click can be done by right clicking the link and pressing copy link address and pasting in an alternate place, revealing the true location of the link. the step is shown below.

Step Three: If you are a person that is lazy, you may opt to completely block URLS that are known for having IP loggers.
This can be done by opening the hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc with your favorite text editor and you should see something like this:

Once you have opened this, go to the very bottom of the file and paste in the following lines:
127.0.0.1 grabify.link
127.0.0.1 imger.cf
127.0.0.1 printscr.gq
127.0.0.1 dropboxx.ga
127.0.0.1 prntsc.cf
127.0.0.1 leakforum.ml
127.0.0.1 deviantartt.ga
127.0.0.1 dropboxx.cf
127.0.0.1 linkit.gq
127.0.0.1 strawpolll.ga
127.0.0.1 leakforum.ga
127.0.0.1 twitte.ga
127.0.0.1 prntscreen.ml
127.0.0.1 imger.gq
127.0.0.1 shorttxt.ml
and then save it.
If you are sent one of these links but still want to see their true contents, I suggest using a redirect tracer such as Wheregoes (http://wheregoes.com/) which can reveal what the true link is.
Step Four: (for the extremely paranoid.) When in-game, turn your music volume down completely as if your music volume is completely off, then when a custom URL is set in say /carradio, it doesn't go through to you. Grabify links work on the SARP script so I suggest you do this if you are really paranoid. As any audio URLS in game are basically HTTP requests, the IP grabber will not differentiate between the request for audio or to the IP grabber, therefore everyone who is near the music box/in the car will have their swiped at once, however, this method of IP grabbing will not work so well when with a lot of people as everyone will have their IP grabbed so keeping your music volume on in a party IG (not that any happen without a DM squad turning up.) will not damage you in anyway.
