Download Firefox
Download the NukeAnything Extension - lets you remove anything from a page
Optionally Download AdBlocker extension - lets you make filters that automaticlly prevent ad images form loading
Firefox has 141 ways of customizing your browser experience lsited at Mozilla.org. You can find more extensions at other sites. There is only 1 add-on listed in Microsofts site for IE6, the Rights Management Add-on. All of the other Add-ons for IE are for IE5 and are not supported for IE6.
From Microsoft's site: "Note: These Web Accessories are for use with Internet Explorer 5 and Internet Explorer 5.5 only; they do not work with Internet Explorer 6. "
IE6 has not had any non-patch work done on it since 2001. The next version of IE will only come out with the new Windows operating system. The current marketing scheme for IE7 is you want it you got to buy Windows Longhorn.
Yuck.
