Panicware do one, both free & paid versions. As you know SP2 has one as standard.

I've used Google Toolbar for some time now - does a good job of blocking nasties and is useful to boot

Mozilla Firefox, replaces IE6 and stops all the pops ups. Much better that IE

Another vote here for Google Toolbar. Effective and full of useful functions.
