squid = proxy server software ACL = access list defined in /etc/squid.conf (which is squid's main config file)
install squid and carefully read the documentation in /usr/share/doc/squid and also read squid.conf. make sure you understand what a proxy server does and how it works.
for cookie protection and junk filtering you might want to install junkbuster. it is a filtering proxy server which filters unwanted urls. you can use both squid and junkbuster to successfully filter, proxy, cache, restrict and clean your web traffic.
