1. Configure your relay to allow SOCKS connections from 127.0.0.1

2. Run the browser (+ included extensions) from the TBB, but not Vidalia 
or the included copy of Tor.

3. Configure TorButton to direct traffic to the SOCKS port on your relay.

4a. Go to http://ip-check.info/ to verify your anonymity.

4b. Optional: use temporary firewall rules to verify that no HTTP[S] or 
DNS requests are leaving your machine.  Remove temp rules when you're 
satisfied that all brower traffic is through the relay.

This is how I route local browser traffic through a LAN-wide Tor relay:

$ diff config/no-polipo-4.0.js config/lan-tor-not-local+vidalia.js

< user_pref("extensions.torbutton.socks_host", "127.0.0.1");
