proxysel addon
So you answered my question and mentioned using a proxysel addon for firefox. Well, I went to the link you sent me then I went to one of the links listed there but I didn't understand how to load a proxy etc. So if you could help with that I would really appreciate it.
(Sorry I keep asking you all these questions but it seems like you know the most about it and you help the most)

Save this file to your desktop:

After you install proxysel into firefox, click the new "proxysel" menu item at the top of firefox. Go to "import - export proxylist", and then "import from file", then "import and append". Select the CSV file that you just saved to your desktop. Done. You can use the dropdown to select the proxy you want to use, and then click the first button to enable it.
When using a proxy, it always takes at least 2x longer to load pages, so you might want to use the third button to disable images; this will greatly increase speed.
The second button enables tor (the other anonymity application I mentioned), but it only works if you have tor and privoxy installed. You can download and install it here:

You want version 0.1.2.17 in the first row of the table. When it asks you in setup, don't install torbutton. Tor is usually faster than most proxies, and it's more secure. It takes about 5 minutes of browsing to warm up, and then the speed will increase.
Good luck!
