Comment 11 for bug 250973

Sure.

1- Get a proxy, or make your own with a ssh tunnel (ssh -D 9090 <email address hidden> will give you a socks5 proxy on port 9090, localhost)
2- Configure proxychains to use that proxy (edit /etc/proxychains, set the proxy up, and disable the DNS proxyfication, it usually doesn't work well, it's an app problem. You can do that by commenting proxy_dns in the file)
3- Run an app through proxychains, by issuing "proxychains command" on a console. For example, proxychains firefox launches firefox using the proxy, and proxychains wget http://www.google.com/ downloads google index through the proxy.

That's it :)
