#2I don't know if being that paranoid is healthy, unless the government or the mob is trying to get you. In which case, there are easier ways to do so besides tracking your browsing habits.
Having said that, maybe you can try browsing on a VM that you can reset via snapshots.

#3GlimmerBlocker (Mac) is a filtering proxy that lets you do just about anything (including filtering headers) to your browsers conversation with a webserver.
Also (in case you haven't already done so), disable Flash or use ClickToFlash.
