I use AdZapper with the Squid HTTP Proxy Server on the OpenBSD box at the house and I really like it. Doesn't kill all popups, but when they do popup, I have no idea what they are selling as all graphics have been replaced with "This Ad Zapped".

All the machines in the house have the ad filtering automagically regardless of OS.
