Polipo (the bundled proxy) supports blocking, both internally (by domain or regexp) and by calling an external redirector such as adzapper. I use this with firefox and opera.

Ways to block ads

I use a combination of /etc/hosts and dnsmasq to redirect ad sites to 127.0.0.1. When I see a new ad is look up where it comes from and add the hostname to the list.
