Hi Jonathan, I'm sorry if I was not clear; I don't own a proxy, I
would like to connect to an existing proxy using tor (I want the web
site to see the proxy ip, not the tor ip), for example the proxy lists
that I find here http://www.samair.ru/proxy/

I will try to follow the ideas expressed by John and the I will let you know.

Perhaps a contraption like this may work:
1. Install SocksCap / Freecap / tsocks and set it up to use Tor
2. Set your browser to use standard_http_proxy as your HTTP proxy
3. Launch your browser over SocksCap / Freecap / tsocks

With luck, SocksCap / Freecap / tsocks will intercept the TCP
connection your browser tries to make to the HTTP proxy, and tunnel it
through Tor.

Thanks
