I'm just curious as to who uses
Personal Proxy Servers in their browsers.
I'm talking about utilities like Proxomitron or Privoxy.
These allow you to block pop-ups, banner ads, animated gifs, spy-ware, redirects, cookies etc. The list goes on and on.
Once you start using them you won't go back. Trust me. Not only do they make surfing faster (no more loading those annoying and superflous graphic rich banner ads or animated gifs), but they can also be used to make web-pages behave.
The two best utilities are absolutely free.
Until recently I used Proxomitron. I swore by it (still do). You can find it at
www.proxomitron.info
However I recently came across Privoxy which also seems an excellent utility and is being developed by OpenForge. Privoxy can be found at
www.privoxy.org
I highly recommend either one. Privoxy may be a better bet as it is still being developed (Proxomitron is not), but it's too early to tell. Both are supported by very large active user communities.

Have fun.
