Been using Privoxy for some time now.
What, exactly, is Squid?
In over my head on a lot of this recent Camino chat, Scott

The Adblock extension will not really *block* ads. It just prevents their display, at least in the incarnation that's known to work with Camino. I've never used PithHelmet, so I don't know much about its behavior. If I were browsing on a 26.4 kbps connection, though, I'd want some truly industrial strength ad blocking. For that, though the setup may seem a bit daunting, I'd recommend using a proxy. Either install squid on your firewall with some good filters, or try the more customizable privoxy. It's free and available from http://www.privoxy.org/ . Configuring blocking actions requires some effort, but the payoff is there in saved bandwidth. You also have the benefit of having one ad blocker for any browser you might care to use, so you only have to determine what you care to block once.
Good luck.
