Try Bookmarklets. They rock, and they work in IE and Netscape (and Mozilla and Firefox) and some of them work in Opera. The bookmarklet "zap colors" changes a page to black-on-white, with blue & purple links. It also makes annoying background images go away. (Er. I guess that's sort of inherent in forcing a white background.)
I use to put "zap colors" right on my bookmark toolbar so that it was only one click away, but during the recent process of switching to Firefox I realized that it was possible to create a keyboard shortcut for it. I'm all about keyboard shortcuts.
