Will the RabbIT proxy do the job?
http://www.khelekore.org/rabbit/

I have not used RabbIT personally, but the description fits:

  RabbIT is a web proxy that speeds up web surfing over slow
  links by doing:
	- Compress text pages to gzip streams.
	  This reduces size by up to 75%
	- Compress images to 10% jpeg.
	  This reduces size by up to 95%
	- Remove advertising
	- Remove background images
	- ...

HTH,

Alex.
