How to protect effectively from malware?

I would like to block malware files. On my gateway firewall, what filetypes should I block?.I don't want to scan all the file types. If I block only exe/DLL files getting dowloaded, will it help to avoid final malware getting executed ?  What I would like to understand is, even if I allow communication with Command and Control (C2) servers, if I block executable/dll files, will it really block malware ultimate purpose?. Final payload will be only executable like exe/dll?
