Please do yourself a favor and install this web filter: The Proxomitron
I found it poking around google groups after being inundated with those stupid 'AT&T Wireless' popups recently. I was not expecting much as I've tried all the other ad-killer programs out there. I downloaded this and was very surprised how well thought out it was and most importantly how well it works.
It runs as an HTML proxy that not only filters and replaces evil, nosy HTML, javascript and whatnot.
Just take a look at what it can do:

All rules are soft coded and configurable. This proggy just rocks!
It is "Shonenware" which means if you wish to keep using the program, the author requires you to go out and buy a 'Shonen Knife' (seach cdnow.com if you don't know who they are) CD and write him back! Heh, you may be about to find them in the bargain bin any any decent used CD shop.
