I've been using privoxy and I really like it. Its a bit intrusive (sometimes "scrambles" a pic that is not an ad).
It is derivated from junkbuster, so it will block cookies, javascript, depending on the way you configure it of course. It also has a "fun" (optional) feature : some regexp replacements can be configured on page contents. Some will find it funny enough to replace "microsoft" with "micro$oft" on every wab page they view... Only saying I like privoxy, I didn't try others...
