i'm not sure why you are wanting to do this. but, if you are trying
to be "more anonymous", then this is not the right approach. here's why:
as i have been told (and please correct me if i'm mistaken!),
basically, every OS-browser-proxy(-et.al.) combination is going to
leave behind a unique footprint that can be tracked by a skilled
adversary. the more complicated you make your chain of proxies, the
more unique footprint it will leave. in this respect it is best to
stick with a configuration more people use, hence anonymity. good luck.
on the other paw, if you are doing such a thing so you can research
these unique footprints and compile a database of sorts, please share
your results! the more we know, the better each application can be
tuned so as to minimize and converge such unique footprints.
